mm: add DEBUG_WX support

Patch series "Extract DEBUG_WX to shared use".

Some architectures support DEBUG_WX function, it's verbatim from each
others, so extract to mm/Kconfig.debug for shared use.

PPC and ARM ports don't support generic page dumper yet, so we only
refine x86 and arm64 port in this patch series.

For RISC-V port, the DEBUG_WX support depends on other patches which
be merged already:
  - RISC-V page table dumper
  - Support strict kernel memory permissions for security

This patch (of 4):

Some architectures support DEBUG_WX function, it's verbatim from each
others.  Extract to mm/Kconfig.debug for shared use.

+	  Generate a warning if any W+X mappings are found at boot.
+
+	  This is useful for discovering cases where the kernel is leaving W+X
+	  mappings after applying NX, as such mappings are a security risk.
+
+	  Look for a message in dmesg output like this:
+
+	    <arch>/mm: Checked W+X mappings: passed, no W+X pages found.
+
+	  or like this, if the check failed:
+
+	    <arch>/mm: Checked W+X mappings: failed, <N> W+X pages found.
+
+	  Note that even if the check fails, your kernel is possibly
+	  still fine, as W+X mappings are not a security hole in
+	  themselves, what they do is that they make the exploitation
+	  of other unfixed kernel bugs easier.
+
+	  There is no runtime or memory usage effect of this option
+	  once the kernel has booted up - it's a one time check.
