I would have expected something that translates PKEY_DISABLE_WRITE |
PKEY_DISABLE_READ into PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS, and also accepts
PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS | PKEY_DISABLE_READ, for consistency with POWER.

(My understanding is that PKEY_DISABLE_ACCESS does not disable all
access, but produces execute-only memory.)

I think Dave requested a value for PKEY_DISABLE_READ which is further
away from the existing bits.

Thanks,
