ARM: 8235/1: Support for the PXN CPU feature on ARMv7
Modern ARMv7-A/R cores optionally implement below new hardware feature: - PXN: Privileged execute-never(PXN) is a security feature. PXN bit determines whether the processor can execute software from the region. This is effective solution against ret2usr attack. On an implementation that does not include the LPAE, PXN is optionally supported. This patch set PXN bit on user page table for preventing user code execution with privilege mode.
