Manoj Iyer (manjo) wrote : [SRU][Bionic] fix false positives in W+X checking

[Impact]
on ARM64 servers we observe call trace "arm64/mm: Found insecure W+X mapping at address 0000000000a99000/0xa99000" while booting. These messages are a false positive and triggered at random.

[Test]
There is no reliable way to reproduce these warnings, they are triggered at random. But these messages can appear on any ARM64 server Cavium, Qualcomm etc.

[Fix]
Upstream fix is available in linux-next
