[PATCH] x86: Unify pte_exec helper

From: Harvey Harrison
Date: Tue Jan 15 2008 - 16:42:47 EST


- Rename it to pte_exec() from pte_exec_kernel(). There is nothing
kernel specific in there.
- Move it into the common file because _PAGE_NX is 0 on !PAE and then
pte_exec() will be always evaluate to true.

Taken from Patch 31/31 in Andi's CPA queue, added the init_32 change
as well. Against x86.git
