Bug description:
  == Justification ==
  In the Bionic KVM kernel, the CONFIG_DEBUG_WX was not set, which is needed to meet the security team's requirement.

  
  == Test ==
  Before enabling the config, test_330_config_debug_wx will fail in the kernel security testsuite for the kernel SRU regression test.

  It will pass with this patche applied, tested on a KVM node.

  == Fix ==
  UBUNTU: [Config]: enable CONFIG_DEBUG_WX

  == Regression Potential ==
  Minimal.
  No code changes, just a config changes without disabling any other configs.

  ----------------------------------------------------------

  The kernel security test require this config to be enabled.

  FAIL: test_330_config_debug_wx (__main__.KernelSecurityConfigTest)
  Ensure DEBUG_WX is set
