Looks like MASK could have been statically defined and be a simple shift
and mask known at compile time. Minor though.

In the changelog, you state that the key is unsigned long yet here and
in the documentation you linked, it's int. Minimally, it's surprising
that the key is signed.

There appears to be a subtle bug fixed for validate_key. It appears
there wasn't protection of the dedicated key before but nothing could
reach it.

The arch_max_pkey and PKEY_DEDICATE_EXECUTE_ONLY interaction is subtle
but I can't find a problem with it either.

That aside, the validate_pkey check looks weak. It might be a number
that works but no guarantee it's an allocated key or initialised
properly. At this point, garbage can be handed into the system call
potentially but maybe that gets fixed later.

On CPUs that do not support the feature, arch_override_mprotect_pkey
returns 0 and the normal protections are used. It's not clear how an
application is meant to detect if the operation succeeded or not. What
if the application relies on pkeys to be working?

Should pkey_mprotect return ENOSYS if the CPU does not support the
requested feature or is that handled somewhere else?
