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.

[jpn: Change check_wx_pages to act as mode bit affecting
      kernel_page_tables instead of triggering action on its own]
Signed-off-by: Jordan Niethe <jniet...@gmail.com>
---
v10: check_wx_pages now affects kernel_page_tables rather then triggers
     its own action.
