    Merge branch 'mm-pkeys-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip · 93c26d7d
    Linus Torvalds authored
    Pull protection keys syscall interface from Thomas Gleixner:
     "This is the final step of Protection Keys support which adds the
      syscalls so user space can actually allocate keys and protect memory
      areas with them. Details and usage examples can be found in the
      documentation.
    
      The mm side of this has been acked by Mel"
