Subject[PATCH 4.4 045/131] ARM: 8494/1: mm: Enable PXN when running non-LPAE kernel on LPAE processor
Date
4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

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

[ Upstream commit ad84f56bf6d620fe6ed4d57ce6ec9945684d7f35 ]

The VMSA field of MMFR0 (bottom 4 bits) is incremented for each
added feature. PXN is supported if the value is >= 4 and LPAE
is supported if it is >= 5.

In case a kernel with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE disabled is used on a
processor that supports LPAE, we can still use PXN in short
descriptors. So check for >= 4 not == 4.
