s390/skey: Provide infrastructure for executing with non-default access key
The current assumption is that kernel code is always executed with access key zero, which means that storage key protection does not apply. However this assumption is not correct: cmpxchg_user_key() may be executed with a non-zero key; if then the storage key of the page which belongs to the cmpxchg_user_key() code contains a key with fetch-protection enabled the result is a protection exception. For several performance optimizations storage keys are not initialized on system boot. To keep these optimizations add infrastructure which allows to define code ranges within functions which are executed with a non-default key. When such code is executed such functions must explicitly call skey_regions_initialize(). This will initialize all storage keys belonging to such code ranges in a way that no protection exceptions happen when the code is executed with a non-default access key.
