Key 2 is preallocated and reserved for execute-only key. In rare cases if key-2 is unavailable, mprotect(PROT_EXEC) will behave incorrectly. NOTE: mprotect(PROT_EXEC) uses execute-only key.
Ensure key 2 is available for preallocation before reserving it for execute_only purpose. Problem noticed by Michael Ellermen.
