Subject: [RFC] x86: cleanup of NX enabling
Date: Fri, 13 Nov 2009 15:28:12 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1258154897-6770-1-git-send-email-hpa@zytor.com> (raw)

Hello all,

Posting this patch series for review; I intend to commit it to
tip:x86/mm unless someone objects over the next few days.

This came about based on Kees' original patch to give better dmesg
information about the status of NX availability.

Jeremy: I'm not 100% this is safe for Xen, as Xen takes its own path
for initialization, so if you could take a quick look, it would be
most appreciated.
