[RESEND PATCH v4 01/11] powerpc: Add LKDTM accessor for patching addr

From: Christopher M. Riedl <hidden>
Date: 2021-05-06 04:37:39
Also in: linux-hardening
Subsystem: linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), the rest · Maintainers: Madhavan Srinivasan, Linus Torvalds

When live patching with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX a mapping is installed at a
"patching address" with temporary write permissions. Provide a
LKDTM-only accessor function for this address in preparation for a LKDTM
test which attempts to "hijack" this mapping by writing to it from
another CPU.
