pkey_bit_position(), perhaps?

I'd prefer clear_pkey_flags() or maybe clear_pkey_bits(). "reset" can
mean "reset to 0" or "reset to 1".
Also, why the u32 here? Isn't an int more appropriate?

Some comments on these would be handy. Basically that this takes a
per-key flags value and puts it at the right position so it can be
shoved in the register.
