[PATCH -fixes 0/2] Fix WX mappings in the linear mapping after module unloading

From: Alexandre Ghiti

I fell onto a bunch of WX mappings in the linear mapping after a module
gets unloaded, this is because our module_alloc() does not set the
VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS flag (patch 1) and that
set_direct_map_default_noflush() must clean the X bit (patch 2).

Note that the Fixes tags are correct but patch 2 will fail to apply
since a change in this function just landed in 6.7.

Alexandre Ghiti (2):
riscv: Fix module_alloc() that did not reset the linear mapping
permissions
riscv: Fix set_direct_map_default_noflush() to reset _PAGE_EXEC
