[PATCH v4] powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections

[Michael Neuling]

This stops us from doing code patching in init sections after they've
been freed.

In this chain:
  kvm_guest_init() ->
    kvm_use_magic_page() ->
      fault_in_pages_readable() ->
	 __get_user() ->
	   __get_user_nocheck() ->
	     barrier_nospec();

We have a code patching location at barrier_nospec() and
kvm_guest_init() is an init function. This whole chain gets inlined,
so when we free the init section (hence kvm_guest_init()), this code
goes away and hence should no longer be patched.

We seen this as userspace memory corruption when using a memory
checker while doing partition migration testing on powervm (this
starts the code patching post migration via
/sys/kernel/mobility/migration). In theory, it could also happen when
using /sys/kernel/debug/powerpc/barrier_nospec.

For stable I've marked this as v4.13+ since that's when we refactored
code-patching.c but it could go back even further than that. In
reality though, I think we can only hit this since the first
spectre/meltdown changes.

v4:
 Feedback from Christophe Leroy:
   - init_mem_free -> init_mem_is_free
   - prlog %lx -> %px

v3:
 Add init_mem_free flag to avoid potential race.
 Feedback from Christophe Leroy:
   - use init_section_contains()
   - change order of init test for performance
   - use pr_debug()
   - remove blank line

v2:
  Print when we skip an address
