[patch 054/111] mm: provide a fallback for PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for architectures

From: "Luis R. Rodriguez" <mcgrof@xxxxxxxxxx>
Subject: mm: provide a fallback for PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC for architectures

Some architectures just don't have PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC.  The mm/nommu.c and
mm/vmalloc.c code have been using PAGE_KERNEL as a fallback for years. 
Move this fallback to asm-generic.
