Commit cca98e9f8b ("mm: enforce that vmap can't map pages executable")
introduced 'pgprot_nx(prot)' for arm64 but collided silently with the
BTI support during the merge window, which endeavours to clear the GP
bit for non-executable kernel mappings in set_memory_nx().
For consistency between the two APIs, clear the GP bit in pgprot_nx().

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
