Subject[PATCH 5.4 22/60] ARM: ensure the signal page contains defined contents
Date
From: Russell King <rmk+kernel@armlinux.org.uk>

[ Upstream commit 9c698bff66ab4914bb3d71da7dc6112519bde23e ]

Ensure that the signal page contains our poison instruction to increase
the protection against ROP attacks and also contains well defined
contents.
