On HPPA, we still need executable stacks, so this option doesn't work

For kernel we don't need it any longer.
But there might be dependencies on glibc version and/or combination.
So, I've currently lost overview if we still need executable stacks...
FWIW, I recently changed gcc-14 to enable GNU stack notes and fixed a bug in the
32-bit PA 2.0 trampoline template. All execute stack tests in glibc now pass with gcc-14.
Yes, I saw your commits.
So, any code compiled with >= gcc-14 should be fine with non-writeable stacks?
It would be easier if it would be a glibc dependency (for distribution maintainers)...
gdb still needs a fix in unwind code.
Ok.
