Subject: [PATCH 1/2] x86_32/mm: Set NX in __supported_pte_mask before enabling paging
Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2015 00:09:29 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <69d86767981330ca2255a791bf457fbe0253f8f4.1450166786.git.luto@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1450166786.git.luto@kernel.org>
In-Reply-To: <cover.1450166786.git.luto@kernel.org>

There's a short window in which very early mappings can end up with
NX clear because they are created before we've noticed that we have
NX.

It turns out that we detect NX very early, so there's no need to
defer __supported_pte_mask setup.
