[ Upstream commit b150a4d12b919baf956b807aa305cf78df03d0fe ] Currently __init_begin is used as the boundary for strict RWX between executable/read-only text and data, and non-executable (after boot) code and data. But that's a little subtle, so add an explicit symbol to document that the SRWX boundary lies there, and add a comment making it clear that __init_begin must also begin there.

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.
