The non-server parts are quite available these days.  I'm typing on one
right now:

	model name	: 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-1165G7 @ 2.80GHz

This can probably say:

Protection Keys for Userspace (PKU) can be found on:
 * Intel server CPUs, Skylake and later
 * Intel client CPUs, Tiger Lake (11th Gen Core) and later
 * Future AMD CPUs

It would be great if the AMD folks can elaborate on that a bit, but I
understand it might not be possible if the CPUs aren't out yet.
