From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> The arch-specific mm_context_t is a great place to put protection-key allocation state. But, we need to initialize the allocation state because pkey 0 is always "allocated". All of the runtime initialization of mm_context_t is done in *_ldt() manipulation functions. This renames the existing LDT functions like this: init_new_context() -> init_new_context_ldt() destroy_context() -> destroy_context_ldt() and makes init_new_context() and destroy_context() available for generic use.
