    Btw, this ends up looking like this on v3.4:

    [ 2.486223] test_nx: Testing NX protection ...
    [ 2.487468] test_nx: calling ffff88001dd57e45 (0xC3)
    [ 2.488766] test_nx: stack is executable
    [ 2.489802] test_nx: calling ffff88001e2c7580 (0xC3)
    [ 2.491106] test_nx: heap is executable
    [ 2.492086] test_nx: calling ffffffff81803c80 (0xC3)
    [ 2.493201] test_nx: calling ffffffffa0002220 (0xC3)
    [ 2.493843] test_nx: calling ffffffffa0001224 (0xC3)
