From: Will Deacon <will.deacon@xxxxxxx> commit 439e70e27a51 upstream. The identity map is mapped as both writeable and executable by the SWAPPER_MM_MMUFLAGS and this is relied upon by the kpti code to manage a synchronisation flag. Update the .pushsection flags to reflect the actual mapping attributes.
