[PATCH 2/3] arm64: use PAGE_KERNEL_ROX directly in alloc_insn_page

From: Christoph Hellwig <hch@lst.de>
Date: 2020-06-18 06:43:26
Also in: linux-hyperv, linux-mm, lkml
Subsystem: arm64 port (aarch64 architecture), the rest · Maintainers: Catalin Marinas, Will Deacon, Linus Torvalds

Use PAGE_KERNEL_ROX directly instead of allocating RWX and setting the
page read-only just after the allocation.
