powerpc/8xx: Allow STRICT_KERNEL_RwX with pinned TLB
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Pinned TLB are 8M. Now that there is no strict boundary anymore
between text and RO data, it is possible to use 8M pinned executable
TLB that covers both text and RO data.

When PIN_TLB_DATA or PIN_TLB_TEXT is selected, enforce 8M RW data
alignment and allow STRICT_KERNEL_RWX.

On 8xx, large pages (512kb or 8M) are used to map kernel linear

in that case.

8M pages will be pinned.

On the 8xx, we have 32 instruction TLBs and 32 data TLBs. In each
table 4 TLBs can be pinned.
