From bc8f6647a73c314d4b46479099868d0dcf6e24c5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Heiner Kallweit Date: Fri, 30 Apr 2021 16:22:51 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] efi: Allow EFI_MEMORY_XP and EFI_MEMORY_RO both to be cleared [ Upstream commit 45add3cc99feaaf57d4b6f01d52d532c16a1caee ] UEFI spec 2.9, p.108, table 4-1 lists the scenario that both attributes are cleared with the description "No memory access protection is possible for Entry". So we can have valid entries where both attributes are cleared, so remove the check.
