Matthieu Castet 5bd5a45266 x86: Add NX protection for kernel data
This patch expands functionality of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to set main
(static) kernel data area as NX.

The following steps are taken to achieve this:

 1. Linker script is adjusted so .text always starts and ends on a page bound
 2. Linker script is adjusted so .rodata always start and end on a page boundary
 3. NX is set for all pages from _etext through _end in mark_rodata_ro.
 4. free_init_pages() sets released memory NX in arch/x86/mm/init.c
 5. bios rom is set to x when pcibios is used.

The results of patch application may be observed in the diff of kernel page
table dumps:

The patch has been originally developed for Linux 2.6.34-rc2 x86 by
Siarhei Liakh <sliakh.lkml@gmail.com> and Xuxian Jiang <jiang@cs.ncsu.edu>.

 -v1:  initial patch for 2.6.30
 -v2:  patch for 2.6.31-rc7
 -v3:  moved all code into arch/x86, adjusted credits
 -v4:  fixed ifdef, removed credits from CREDITS
 -v5:  fixed an address calculation bug in mark_nxdata_nx()
 -v6:  added acked-by and PT dump diff to commit log
 -v7:  minor adjustments for -tip
 -v8:  rework with the merge of "Set first MB as RW+NX"
