As the kernel and user space page tables are strictly mutually exclusive when it comes to executable permissions, we can set the UXN table attribute on all table entries that are created while creating kernel mappings in the swapper page tables, and the PXN table attribute on all table entries that are created while creating user space mappings in user space page tables. While at it, get rid of a redundant comment.

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.
