If a Cortex-A715 cpu sees a page mapping permissions change from executable to non-executable, it may corrupt the ESR_ELx and FAR_ELx registers, on the next instruction abort caused by permission fault. Only user-space does executable to non-executable permission transition via mprotect() system call which calls ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify _prot_commit() helpers, while changing the page mapping. The platform code can override these helpers via __HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION. Work around the problem via doing a break-before-make TLB invalidation, for all executable user space mappings, that go through mprotect() system call. This overrides ptep_modify_prot_start() and ptep_modify_prot_commit(), via defining HAVE_ARCH_PTEP_MODIFY_PROT_TRANSACTION on the platform thus giving an opportunity to intercept user space exec mappings, and do the necessary TLB invalidation. Similar interceptions are also implemented for HugeTLB.
