This reverts commit d2b8a476c29d52c484b387454082bbc906b0b4f8.

Remove the PKEY_DISABLE_EXECUTE subtest. The function_size() code
is broken in a way that I cannot easily fix. The function tries
to calculate the size of a function by finding the first RET
instruction. However, in 32bit LTP builds, the code gets compiled
to this:

0804b690 <function_size>:
 804b690:       8b 4c 24 04             mov    0x4(%esp),%ecx
 804b694:       0f b6 01                movzbl (%ecx),%eax
 804b697:       83 c0 3e                add    $0x3e,%eax
 804b69a:       3c 01                   cmp    $0x1,%al
 804b69c:       76 1a                   jbe    804b6b8 <function_size+0x28>
 804b69e:       89 c8                   mov    %ecx,%eax
 804b6a0:       83 c0 01                add    $0x1,%eax
 804b6a3:       0f b6 10                movzbl (%eax),%edx
 804b6a6:       83 c2 3e                add    $0x3e,%edx
 804b6a9:       80 fa 01                cmp    $0x1,%dl
 804b6ac:       77 f2                   ja     804b6a0 <function_size+0x10>
 804b6ae:       29 c8                   sub    %ecx,%eax
 804b6b0:       83 c0 10                add    $0x10,%eax
 804b6b3:       c3                      ret
 804b6b4:       8d 74 26 00             lea    0x0(%esi,%eiz,1),%esi
 804b6b8:       b8 10 00 00 00          mov    $0x10,%eax
 804b6bd:       c3                      ret
 804b6be:       66 90                   xchg   %ax,%ax

If you look closely enough, you'll notice a C2 byte in add $0x3e,%edx
instruction on address 804b6a6. The function will assume this byte is
a RET instruction, return a size that's 22 bytes too short and then
the code execution inside the executable buffer will run past the end
of buffer, resulting in a segfault.
