v3 cover letter: https://lists.ozlabs.org/pipermail/linuxppc-dev/2019-October/198023.html
Changes since v4:
[1/5]: Addressed review comments from Michael Ellerman (thanks!)
[4/5]: make ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX depend on
ARCH_HAS_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX to simplify things and avoid
STRICT_MODULE_RWX being *on by default* in cases where
STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is *unavailable*
[5/5]: split skiroot_defconfig changes out into its own patch
The whole Kconfig situation is really weird and confusing, I believe the
correct resolution is to change arch/Kconfig but the consequences are so
minor that I don't think it's worth it, especially given that I expect
powerpc to have mandatory strict RWX Soon(tm).
Russell Currey (5):
powerpc/mm: Implement set_memory() routines
powerpc/kprobes: Mark newly allocated probes as RO
powerpc/mm/ptdump: debugfs handler for W+X checks at runtime
powerpc: Set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX
powerpc/configs: Enable STRICT_MODULE_RWX in skiroot_defconfig
