From: Russell Currey <rus...@russell.cc> Optionally run W+X checks when dumping pagetable information to debugfs' kernel_page_tables.
To use: $ echo 1 > /sys/kernel/debug/check_wx_pages $ cat /sys/kernel/debug/kernel_page_tables and check the kernel log. Useful for testing strict module RWX. To disable W+X checks: $ echo 0 > /sys/kernel/debug/check_wx_pages Update the Kconfig entry to reflect this. Also fix a typo.
