Dave Hansen 1b2ee1266e mm/core: Do not enforce PKEY permissions on remote mm access
We try to enforce protection keys in software the same way that we
do in hardware.  (See long example below).

But, we only want to do this when accessing our *own* process's
memory.  If GDB set PKRU[6].AD=1 (disable access to PKEY 6), then
tried to PTRACE_POKE a target process which just happened to have
some mprotect_pkey(pkey=6) memory, we do *not* want to deny the
debugger access to that memory.  PKRU is fundamentally a
thread-local structure and we do not want to enforce it on access
to _another_ thread's data.

This gets especially tricky when we have workqueues or other
delayed-work mechanisms that might run in a random process's context.
We can check that we only enforce pkeys when operating on our *own* mm,
but delayed work gets performed when a random user context is active.
We might end up with a situation where a delayed-work gup fails when
running randomly under its "own" task but succeeds when running under
another process.  We want to avoid that.

To avoid that, we use the new GUP flag: FOLL_REMOTE and add a
fault flag: FAULT_FLAG_REMOTE.  They indicate that we are
walking an mm which is not guranteed to be the same as
current->mm and should not be subject to protection key
enforcement.

Thanks to Jerome Glisse for pointing out this scenario.
