There's a dependency on this series:

https://lore.kernel.org/r/20241028090715.509527-2-yury.khrustalev@xxxxxxx/

Which I did not notice. Typically the uapi patches are picked by Arnd
but first that series needs to be reposted with the comments addressed.

I think for now we either merge this fix from Kevin (happy to add a
FIXME comment when applying), change the kselftest to use 0 instead of
PKEY_UNRESTRICTED or revert the top two patches here:

https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/arm64/linux.git/log/?h=for-next/pkey-signal

I'm fine with all options really, it's not essential that we get the
kselftest patches above merged in 6.13.
