The PKRS MSR is defined as a per-logical-processor register. This isolates memory access by logical CPU. Unfortunately, the MSR is not managed by XSAVE. Therefore, tasks must save/restore the MSR value on context switch.
Define a saved PKRS value in the task struct, as well as a cached per-logical-processor MSR value which mirrors the MSR value of the current CPU. Initialize all tasks with the default MSR value. Then, on schedule in, check the saved task MSR vs the per-cpu value. If different proceed to write the MSR. If not avoid the overhead of the MSR write and continue.
Follow on patches will update the saved PKRS as well as the MSR if needed.
Finally it should be noted that the underlying WRMSR(MSR_IA32_PKRS) is not serializing but still maintains ordering properties similar to WRPKRU. The current SDM section on PKRS needs updating but should be the same as that of WRPKRU. So to quote from the WRPKRU text:
WRPKRU will never execute transiently. Memory accesses affected by PKRU register will not execute (even transiently) until all prior executions of WRPKRU have completed execution and updated the PKRU register.
