Christophe Leroy a5e8131a03 arm64, powerpc, riscv, s390, x86: ptdump: refactor CONFIG_DEBUG_WX
All architectures using the core ptdump functionality also implement
CONFIG_DEBUG_WX, and they all do it more or less the same way, with a
function called debug_checkwx() that is called by mark_rodata_ro(), which
is a substitute to ptdump_check_wx() when CONFIG_DEBUG_WX is set and a
no-op otherwise.

Refactor by centrally defining debug_checkwx() in linux/ptdump.h and call
debug_checkwx() immediately after calling mark_rodata_ro() instead of
calling it at the end of every mark_rodata_ro().

On x86_32, mark_rodata_ro() first checks __supported_pte_mask has _PAGE_NX
before calling debug_checkwx().  Now the check is inside the callee
ptdump_walk_pgd_level_checkwx().

On powerpc_64, mark_rodata_ro() bails out early before calling
ptdump_check_wx() when the MMU doesn't have KERNEL_RO feature.  The check
is now also done in ptdump_check_wx() as it is called outside
mark_rodata_ro().

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
