Mainline Linux tree for various devices, only for fun :)

Currently we map the whole linear mapping with PAGE_KERNEL_X. Instead we
should check if the page overlaps the kernel text and only then add
PAGE_KERNEL_X.
Note that we still use 1G pages if they're available, so this will
typically still result in a 1G executable page at KERNELBASE. So this fix is
primarily useful for catching stray branches to high linear mapping addresses.
Without this patch, we can execute at 1G in xmon using:
0:mon> m c000000040000000
c000000040000000 00 l
c000000040000000 00000000 01006038
c000000040000004 00000000 2000804e
c000000040000008 00000000 x
0:mon> di c000000040000000
c000000040000000 38600001 li r3,1
c000000040000004 4e800020 blr
0:mon> p c000000040000000
return value is 0x1
After we get a 400 as expected:
0:mon> p c000000040000000
*** 400 exception occurred

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
