Thomas Gleixner 6ee98ffeea x86/ftrace: Make sure that ftrace trampolines are not RWX
ftrace use module_alloc() to allocate trampoline pages. The mapping of
module_alloc() is RWX, which makes sense as the memory is written to right
after allocation. But nothing makes these pages RO after writing to them.

Add proper set_memory_rw/ro() calls to protect the trampolines after
modification.

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.
