Subject: [PATCH] wistron_btns needs executable BIOS image

Hello,

This patch (originally agains 3.1x, now I updated include to build
against 4.12.x) fixes winstron_btns module issue with calling BIOS
functions in non-executable memory.

Tested (on Linux 3.10.x and few later versions) on F-S Amilo 8210 laptop.
