[PATCH v9 39/51] selftest/vm: clear the bits in shadow reg when a pkey is freed.

From: Ram Pai
Date: Mon Nov 06 2017 - 04:07:23 EST


When a key is freed, the key is no more effective.
Clear the bits corresponding to the pkey in the shadow
register. Otherwise it will carry some spurious bits
which can trigger false-positive asserts.
