x86/mm/pkeys: Fix access_error() denial of writes to write-only VMA

Andrey Wagin reported that a simple test case was broken by:

	2b5f7d013fc ("mm/core, x86/mm/pkeys: Add execute-only protection keys support")

This test case creates an unreadable VMA and my patch assumed
that all writes must be to readable VMAs.

The simplest fix for this is to remove the pkey-related bits
in access_error().  For execute-only support, I believe the
existing version is sufficient because the permissions we
are trying to enforce are entirely expressed in vma->vm_flags.
We just depend on pkeys to get *an* exception, it does not
matter that PF_PK was set, or even what state PKRU is in.

I will re-add the necessary bits with the full pkeys
implementation that includes the new syscalls.

The three cases that matter are:

1. If a write to an execute-only VMA occurs, we will see PF_WRITE
   set, but !VM_WRITE on the VMA, and return 1.  All execute-only
   VMAs have VM_WRITE clear by definition.
2. If a read occurs on a present PTE, we will fall in to the "read,
   present" case and return 1.
3. If a read occurs to a non-present PTE, we will miss the "read,
   not present" case, because the execute-only VMA will have
   VM_EXEC set, and we will properly return 0 allowing the PTE to
   be populated.

Test program:

 int main()
 {
	int *p;
	p = mmap(NULL, 4096, PROT_WRITE, MAP_PRIVATE | MAP_ANONYMOUS, -1, 0);
	p[0] = 1;

	return 0;
 }
