[PATCH v5 26/26] powerpc/selftest/ptrace-pkey: IAMR and uamor cannot be updated by ptrace

From: Aneesh Kumar K.V <hidden>
Date: 2020-06-19 16:35:22
Subsystem: kernel selftest framework, the rest · Maintainers: Shuah Khan, Shuah Khan, Linus Torvalds

Both IAMR and uamor are privileged and cannot be updated by userspace. Hence
we also don't allow ptrace interface to update them. Don't update them in the
test. Also expected_iamr is only changed if we can allocate a  DISABLE_EXECUTE
pkey.
