From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@linux.intel.com>
Protection Keys never affect kernel mappings. But, they can affect whether the kernel will fault when it touches a user mapping. The kernel doesn't touch user mappings without some careful choreography and these accesses don't generally result in oopses. But, if one does, we definitely want to have PKRU available so we can figure out if protection keys played a role.
