Subject: [GIT PULL] x86/mm for 7.4-rc1
Date: Mon, 19 Oct 2026 08:45:29 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20261019154529.1878897-1-dave.hansen@linux.intel.com> (raw)

Hi Linus,

Please pull some x86/mm changes for 7.4-rc1. The __add_pages() and
pgd_clear() ones are pretty mundane.

But the W^X ones are worth calling out. Effectively, the checks that
were supposed to be looking out for Write+Exec permission mappings
were busted. This fixes them, so we should all be on the lookout for
new warnings, both false positives and real ones.
