exception is generated.
Page-level protections cannot be used to override segment-level protection. For
example, a code segment is by definition not writable. If a code segment is paged,
setting the R/W flag for the pages to read-write does not make the pages writable.
Attempts to write into the pages will be blocked by segment-level protection checks.
Page-level protection can be used to enhance segment-level protection. For
example, if a large read-write data segment is paged, the page-protection mecha-
nism can be used to write-protect individual pages.

* If CR0.WP = 1, access type is determined by the R/W flags of the page-directory and page-table
entries. IF CR0.WP = 0, supervisor privilege permits read-write access.
