Merge tag 'x86_mm_for_v6.1_rc1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/tip/tip
Pull x86 mm updates from Dave Hansen:
"There are some small things here, plus one big one.
The big one detected and refused to create W+X kernel mappings. This
caused a bit of trouble and it is entirely disabled on 32-bit due to
known unfixable EFI issues. It also oopsed on some systemd eBPF use,
which kept some users from booting.
The eBPF issue is fixed, but those troubles were caught relatively
recently which made me nervous that there are more lurking. The final
commit in here retains the warnings, but doesn't actually refuse to
create W+X mappings.
Summary:
- Detect insecure W+X mappings and warn about them, including a few
bug fixes and relaxing the enforcement
- Do a long-overdue defconfig update and enabling W+X boot-time
detection
- Cleanup _PAGE_PSE handling (follow-up on an earlier bug)
- Rename a change_page_attr function"
