Subject: [PATCH 3/9] x86, pkeys, selftests: add a test for pkey 0


From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@...ux.intel.com>

Protection key 0 is the default key for all memory and will
not normally come back from pkey_alloc().  But, you might
still want pass it to mprotect_pkey().

This check ensures that you can use pkey 0.
