[PATCH v12 16/22] selftests/vm: fix an assertion in test_pkey_alloc_exhaust()

The maximum number of keys that can be allocated has to take into consideration, that some keys are reserved by the architecture for specific purpose. Hence cannot be allocated. Fix the assertion in test_pkey_alloc_exhaust() cc: Dave Hansen cc: Florian Weimer
