arm64: Fix R/O permissions in mark_rodata_ro
The permissions in mark_rodata_ro trigger a build error with STRICT_MM_TYPECHECKS. Fix this by introducing PAGE_KERNEL_ROX for the same reasons as PAGE_KERNEL_RO. From Ard: "PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC has PTE_WRITE set as well, making the range writeable under the ARMv8.1 DBM feature, that manages the dirty bit in hardware (writing to a page with the PTE_RDONLY and PTE_WRITE bits both set will clear the PTE_RDONLY bit in that case)" Signed-off-by: Laura Abbott <labbott@fedoraproject.org> Acked-by: Ard Biesheuvel <ard.biesheuvel@linaro.org> Signed-off-by: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@arm.com>
