Bernhard Walle 060264133b [WATCHDOG] hpwdt: set the mapped BIOS address space as executable
The address provided by the SMBIOS/DMI CRU information is mapped via
ioremap() in the virtual address space.  However, since the address is
executed (i.e.  call'd), we need to set that pages as executable.

Without that, I get following oops on a HP ProLiant DL385 G2
machine with BIOS from 05/29/2008 when I trigger crashdump:
