    watchdog: hpwdt: Changes to handle NX secure bit in 32bit path · e67d668e
    Mingarelli, Thomas authored
    This patch makes use of the set_memory_x() kernel API in order
    to make necessary BIOS calls to source NMIs.
    
    This is needed for SLES11 SP2 and the latest upstream kernel as it appears
    the NX Execute Disable has grown in its control.
