That should be be a feature check

That is a kernel config change

Both feature check.

how about doing something like

static inline u16 pte_to_pkey_bits(u64 pteflags)
{
if (!(pteflags & H_PAGE_KEY_MASK))
return 0x0UL;

return (((pteflags & H_PAGE_PKEY_BIT0) ? 0x10 : 0x0UL) |
((pteflags & H_PAGE_PKEY_BIT1) ? 0x8 : 0x0UL) |
((pteflags & H_PAGE_PKEY_BIT2) ? 0x4 : 0x0UL) |
((pteflags & H_PAGE_PKEY_BIT3) ? 0x2 : 0x0UL) |
((pteflags & H_PAGE_PKEY_BIT4) ? 0x1 : 0x0UL));
}

We still have to look at the code generated to see it is really saving
something.
