[PULL 03/14] linux-user: Adjust guest page protection for the host


From: Laurent Vivier
Subject: [PULL 03/14] linux-user: Adjust guest page protection for the host
Date: Thu, 13 Aug 2020 08:49:12 +0200

From: Richard Henderson <richard.henderson@linaro.org>

Executable guest pages are never directly executed by
the host, but do need to be readable for translation.
