[PATCH 26/43] x86/mm/kaiser: Allow NX poison to be set in p4d/pgd
From: Ingo Molnar
Date: Fri Nov 24 2017 - 12:29:28 EST
From: Dave Hansen <dave.hansen@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>
The user portion of the kernel page tables use the NX bit to
poison them for userspace. But, that trips the p4d/pgd_bad()
checks. Make sure it does not do that.
