Subject: [RFC PATCH 1/4] Provide linux/set_memory.h

Currently code that wants to use set_memory_ro() etc, needs to include
asm/set_memory.h, which doesn't exist on all arches. Some code knows
it only builds on arches which have the header, other code guards the
inclusion with an #ifdef, neither is ideal.

So create linux/set_memory.h. This always exists, so users don't need
an #ifdef just to include the header.

When CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=y it includes asm/set_memory.h,
otherwise it provides empty non-failing implementations.

Does this look OK to people? If so it would be great if someone, Kees?,
Andrew?, could pick up patch 1 (it's a nop by itself) and then we can send the
conversions separately later in the merge window?

cheers

Subject: [RFC PATCH 4/4] bpf: Use linux/set_memory.h

This header always exists, so doesn't require an ifdef around its
inclusion. When CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=y it includes the asm header,
otherwise it provides empty versions of the set_memory_xx() routines.

This header always exists, so doesn't require an ifdef around its
inclusion. When CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY=y it includes the asm header,
otherwise it provides empty versions of the set_memory_xx() routines.

The usages of set_memory_xx() are still guarded by CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.

Looks good to me, thanks!

I'm fine if Andrew or Kees picks up the bpf patch as well, I think
there shouldn't be any conflict with net-next on this one (and even
if so, then looks trivial to resolve).

I nominate Andrew. ;) This should go in early in the merge window and
the users can go late in the window. If Andrew has enough to do, I can
carry it too; just say the word.

This is a sane addition and allows for lines-of-code reduction in a
few places. Thanks!

Andrew's picked them up in mmotm, thanks everyone.
