Protection Keys User (PKU) and Protection Keys Supervisor (PKS) work in similar fashions and can share common defines.
Could we be a bit less abstract? PKS and PKU each have: 1. A single control register 2. The same number of keys 3. The same number of bits in the register per key 4. Access and Write disable in the same bit locations
That means that we can share all the macros that synthesize and manipulate register values between the two features.

Now that this has moved away from its use-site, it's a bit less self-documenting. Let's add a comment:
/* * Generate an Access-Disable mask for the given pkey. Several of these * can be OR'd together to generate pkey register values. */
Once that's in place, along with the updated changelog:
