X86_FEATURE_OSPKE is enabled first on the boot CPU and the feature flag is set. Secondary CPUs have to enable CR4.PKE as well and set their per CPU feature flag. That's ineffective because all call sites have checks for boot_cpu_data. Make it smarter and force the feature flag when PKU is enabled on the boot cpu which allows then to use cpu_feature_enabled(X86_FEATURE_OSPKE) all over the place. That either compiles the code out when PKEY support is disabled in Kconfig or uses a static_cpu_has() for the feature check which makes a significant difference in hotpaths, e.g. context switch.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
