This patch set implements STRICT_KERNEL_RWX on Powerpc32 after fixing a few issues related to kernel code page protection.
It superseeds the previous patch set identified "Fix kernel protection and implement CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA on PPC32" This set is based on Balbir Singh <bsinghar...@gmail.com> set identified "Enable STRICT_KERNEL_RWX" and applies on top of it. At the end we take the opportunity to get rid of some unneccessary/outdated fixmap stuff.
