Subject: [PATCH 1/2] security: Change name of CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA
Despite the word 'debug' in CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA, this kernel option
provides key security features that are to be expected on a modern
system. Change the name to CONFIG_HARDENED_PAGE_MAPPINGS which more
accurately describes what this option is intended to do.
