| 2007-02-05 | [S390] Mark kernel text section read-only. | Heiko Carstens | |
| Set read-only flag in the page table entries for the kernel image text section. This will catch all instruction caused corruptions withing the text section. Instruction replacement via kprobes still works, since it bypasses now dynamic address translation.

| 2007-02-05 | [S390] Convert memory detection into C code. | Heiko Carstens | |
| Hopefully this will make it more maintainable and less error prone. Code makes use of search_exception_tables(). Since it calls this function before the kernel exeception table is sorted, there is an early call to sort_main_extable(). This way it's easy to use the already present infrastructure of fixup sections. Also this would allows to easily convert the rest of head[31|64].S into C code.
