From: Sebastian Andrzej Siewior <bigeasy@linutronix.de> mainline inclusion from mainline-v5.2-rc1 commit 0556cbdc2fbcb3068e5b924a8b3d5386ae0dd27d category: feature bugzilla: https://gitee.com/openeuler/kernel/issues/I4MKP4 CVE: NA -------------------------------- write_pkru() checks if the current value is the same as the expected value. So instead of just checking if the current and new value is zero (and skip the write in such a case) we can benefit from that. Remove the zero check of PKRU, __write_pkru() provides such a check now.
