I went trying to clean up the spurious protection key checks.
But, I got distracted by some other warts in the code.  I hope this
makes things more comprehendable with some improved structure,
commenting and naming.

We come out the other side of it with a new warning in for pkey
faults in the kernel portion of the address space, and removal
of some dead pkeys code, but no other functional changes.

There is a potential impact from moving the vsyscall emulation.
But, this does pass the x86 selftests without any fuss.
