RFC 1/1 powerpc: add sys_pkey_modify() system call

sys_pkey_modify() is powerpc specific system call. It
enables the ability to modify *any* attribute of a key.

Since powerpc disallows modification of IAMR from user space an application is unable to change a key's execute-attribute.

This system call helps accomplish the above.
