Andrew Morton 69018a9b08 revert "memfd: improve userspace warnings for missing exec-related flags".
commit 2562d67b1b upstream.

This warning is telling userspace developers to pass MFD_EXEC and
MFD_NOEXEC_SEAL to memfd_create().  Commit 434ed3350f ("memfd: improve
userspace warnings for missing exec-related flags") made the warning more
frequent and visible in the hope that this would accelerate the fixing of
errant userspace.

But the overall effect is to generate far too much dmesg noise.

Fixes: 434ed3350f ("memfd: improve userspace warnings for missing exec-related flags")

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.
