So with this patch applied, we require the GNU_STACK section to be
present in the mainline ATF ELF?

In other words:
If I use a toolchain, which does not create the GNU_STACK section,
or if I have this information stripped away, then the Python script
does not work correctly anymore?

Is this summary correct?
