Subject[PATCH v2] x86/mm: Fix 185be15143aa ("Remove set_pages_x() and set_pages_nx()")
Date
In commit 185be15143aa ("x86/mm: Remove set_pages_x() and set_pages_nx()"),
the wrappers were removed as they did not provide a real benefit over
set_memory_x() and set_memory_nx(). This change causes a problem because
the wrappers were exported, but the underlying routines were not. As a
result, external modules that used the wrappers would need to recreate
a significant part of memory management.
