Subject: [PATCH 4.14 158/189] x86/pkeys/selftests: Allow faults on unknown keys

4.14-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

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

[ Upstream commit 7e7fd67ca39335a49619729821efb7cbdd674eb0 ]

The exec-only pkey is allocated inside the kernel and userspace
is not told what it is.  So, allow PK faults to occur that have
an unknown key.
