AMD's next generation of EPYC processors support the MPK (Memory
Protection Keys) feature.

AMD documentation for MPK feature is available at "AMD64 Architecture
Programmer’s Manual Volume 2: System Programming, Pub. 24593 Rev. 3.34,
Section 5.6.6 Memory Protection Keys (MPK) Bit".

The documentation can be obtained at the link below:
https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=206537

This series enables the feature on AMD and updates config parameters
to reflect the MPK support on generic x86 platforms.

v3:
  - Fixed the problem Jim Mattson pointed out which can cause pkru
    resources to get corrupted during host and guest switches. 
  - Moved the PKU feature detection code from VMX.c to common code.
  
v2:
  https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/158897190718.22378.3974700869904223395.stgit@naples-babu.amd.com/
  - Introduced intermediate config option X86_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS to
    avoid user propmpts. Kept X86_INTEL_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS as is.
    Eventually, we will be moving to X86_MEMORY_PROTECTION_KEYS after
    couple of kernel revisions. 
  - Moved pkru data structures to kvm_vcpu_arch. Moved save/restore pkru
    to kvm_load_host_xsave_state/kvm_load_guest_xsave_state.

v1:
