powerpc/mm/radix: Only add X for pages overlapping kernel text
Currently we map the whole linear mapping with PAGE_KERNEL_X. Instead we
should check if the page overlaps the kernel text and only then add
PAGE_KERNEL_X.
Note that we still use 1G pages if they're available, so this will
typically still result in a 1G executable page at KERNELBASE. So this fix is
primarily useful for catching stray branches to high linear mapping addresses.
Without this patch, we can execute at 1G in xmon using:
0:mon> m c000000040000000
c000000040000000 00 l
c000000040000000 00000000 01006038
c000000040000004 00000000 2000804e
c000000040000008 00000000 x
0:mon> di c000000040000000
c000000040000000 38600001 li r3,1
c000000040000004 4e800020 blr
0:mon> p c000000040000000
return value is 0x1
After we get a 400 as expected:
0:mon> p c000000040000000
*** 400 exception occurred
