+.Ss Supervisor mode memory protection
+Certain processors include features that prevent unintended access to memory
+pages accessible to userspace (non-privileged) code, while in a privileged
+mode.
+One feature prevents execution, intended to mitigate exploitation of kernel
+vulnerabilities from userland.
+Another feature prevents unintended reads from or writes to user space memory
+from the kernel.
+This also provides effective protection against NULL pointer dereferences from
+kernel.
