Subject: [PATCH 3.13 043/151] arm64: Make DMA coherent and strongly ordered mappings not executable

3.13.11.1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Catalin Marinas <catalin.marinas@....com>

commit de2db7432917a82b62d55bb59635586eeca6d1bd upstream.

pgprot_{dmacoherent,writecombine,noncached} don't need to generate
executable mappings with side-effects like __sync_icache_dcache() being
called when the mapping is in user space.
