Subject: [PATCH 4.18 030/145] powerpc/pkeys: Deny read/write/execute by default

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

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

From: Ram Pai <linuxram@...ibm.com>

commit de113256f8c1c24d8c79ae388bf2a5abd70f7577 upstream.

Deny all permissions on all keys, with some exceptions. pkey-0 must
allow all permissions, or else everything comes to a screaching halt.
Execute-only key must allow execute permission.

Fixes: cf43d3b26452 ("powerpc: Enable pkey subsystem")
