Already done:

 #define pgprot_dmacoherent(prot) \
-       __pgprot_modify(prot, L_PTE_MT_MASK|L_PTE_EXEC, L_PTE_MT_BUFFERABLE)
+       __pgprot_modify(prot, L_PTE_MT_MASK, L_PTE_MT_BUFFERABLE|L_PTE_XN)
...
 #define pgprot_dmacoherent(prot) \
-       __pgprot_modify(prot, L_PTE_MT_MASK|L_PTE_EXEC, L_PTE_MT_UNCACHED)
+       __pgprot_modify(prot, L_PTE_MT_MASK, L_PTE_MT_UNCACHED|L_PTE_XN)
