Subject: [GIT PULL] rodata updates for v4.11-rc1

Hi,

This is a small series that has been living in my KSPP -next tree that I've
extracted separately for v4.11, since there may be some merge clean-up needed
with them. CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA (and CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX) have long been
inaccurate terms for the protection they provide, and this renames them. As
such there may be some fix-ups needs to catch any CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA cases
added/changed since v4.10-rc2. In the -next merges it has been pretty minor,
so I don't expect much pain, but I wanted to err on the side of caution.

Thanks!

-Kees

  arch: Rename CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and CONFIG_DEBUG_MODULE_RONX (2017-02-07 12:32:52 -0800)

----------------------------------------------------------------
This renames the (now inaccurate) CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA and related config
CONFIG_SET_MODULE_RONX to the more sensible CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX and
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.

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