next-20170515: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at arch/x86/mm/dump_pagetables.c:236 note_page+0x630/0x7e0

["Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@kernel.org>]

For a few kernel releases now I have managed to trigger the warning added via
commit e1a58320a38dfa ("x86/mm: Warn on W^X mappings", merged upstream since
v4.4) on my KVM qemu x86_64 system. Since I just booted into the shiny new
linux-next tag next-20170515 (based on v4.12-rc1) and this is still triggering
I figured its time to tackle this.

Let me know if this is already known or what can be done to try to fix this.

Using QEMU emulator version 2.7.94 (v2.8.0-rc4-dirty)

I will try updating my distro package for qemu and see if perhaps its this
and for the other odd fork issue I reported [0].
