I have abstracted out the arch-specific code. References to pkru should now be constricted to x86 code only. The patch, i acknowledge, is not easily reviewable. As Michael Ellermen mentioned I will break them into two patches. One moves the file and the second does the code changes. That way it will be easy to review. RP
