Subject: [PATCH v3 2/2] mm: provide a fallback for PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for architectures
Date: Thu, 10 May 2018 11:55:07 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20180510185507.2439-3-mcgrof@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20180510185507.2439-1-mcgrof@kernel.org>
Some architectures just don't have PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC. The mm/nommu.c
and mm/vmalloc.c code have been using PAGE_KERNEL as a fallback for
years. Move this fallback to asm-generic.
Suggested-by: Matthew Wilcox <willy@infradead.org>
