This patch set adds execute and read inhibit support.  By default glibc
based tool chains will create mappings for data areas of a program and
shared libraries with PROT_EXEC cleared.  With this patch applied, a
SIGSEGV is correctly sent if an attempt is made to execute from data
areas.

We have been running this patch for close to a year.  So far it seems
to work well, so I ported it to the HEAD for your enjoyment.

I will reply with the four patches.

David Daney (4):
   MIPS: Use 64-bit stores to c0_entrylo on 64-bit kernels.
   MIPS: Add accessor functions and bit definitions for c0_PageGrain
   MIPS: Add TLBP to uasm.
   MIPS: Implement Read Inhibit/eXecute Inhibit
