While most of a task's FPU state is only needed in user space, the protection keys need to be in place immediately after a context switch. The reason is that any access to userspace memory while running in kernel mode also needs to abide by the memory permissions specified in the protection keys. The "eager switch" is a preparation for loading the FPU state on return to userland. Instead of decoupling PKRU state from xstate, update PKRU within xstate on write operations by the kernel. For user tasks the PKRU should be always read from the xsave area and it should not change anything because the PKRU value was loaded as part of FPU restore. For kernel threads the default "init_pkru_value" will be written. Before this commit, the kernel thread would end up with a random value which it inherited from the previous user task.

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.
