Exposing the XN flag of the SMMU driver as IOMMU_NOEXEC instead of
IOMMU_EXEC makes it enforceable, since for IOMMUs that don't support
the XN flag pages will always be executable.

It's probably simpler to change the logic so that we initialise pteval
without XN set, then set it if IOMMU_NOEXEC is set (rather than set it
by default, then clear it if NOEXEC is not set).
