[PATCH] x86/mm+efi: Avoid creating W+X mappings
From: Dave Hansen
Date: Thu Sep 22 2022 - 15:32:04 EST
From: Peter Zijlstra <peterz@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>
I'm planning on sticking this in x86/mm so that it goes upstream
along with the W+X detection code.

A recent x86/mm change warns and refuses to create W+X mappings.
The 32-bit EFI code tries to create such a mapping and trips over
the new W+X refusal.
Make the EFI_RUNTIME_SERVICES_CODE mapping read-only to fix it.
