[PATCH 4.17 045/220] powerpc/pkeys: Detach execute_only key on !PROT_EXEC

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Sun Jul 01 2018 - 13:20:45 EST


4.17-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Ram Pai <linuxram@xxxxxxxxxx>

commit eabdb8ca8690eedd461e61ea7780595fbbae8132 upstream.

Disassociate the exec_key from a VMA if the VMA permission is not
PROT_EXEC anymore. Otherwise the exec_only key continues to be
associated with the vma, causing unexpected behavior.

The problem was reported on x86 by Shakeel Butt, which is also
applicable on powerpc.
