Thats leaking deep Intelisms into asm-generic which makes me very
uncomfortable. Whether we need to reserve some bits for "arch specific"
is one question, what we do with them ought not to be leaking out.

To start with trying to port code people will want to do

#define PROT_PKEY0      0
#define PROT_PKEY1      0
.. 

etc
