Generally the signal handler restores the state of the pkey register
before returning. However there are times when the read/write operation
can legitamely fail without invoking the signal handler. Eg: A
sys_read() operaton to a write-protected page should be disallowed. In
such a case the state of the pkey register is not restored to its
original state. The test case is responsible for restoring the key
register state to its original value.
