Subject: x86/pkeys/selftests: Add a test for pkey 0
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 3488a600d90bcaf061b104dbcfbdc8d99b398312 ]
Protection key 0 is the default key for all memory and will
not normally come back from pkey_alloc(). But, you might
still want pass it to mprotect_pkey().
This check ensures that you can use pkey 0.
