[PATCH v2] powerpc/mm: Implement STRICT_MODULE_RWX

Strict module RWX is just like strict kernel RWX, but for modules - so
loadable modules aren't marked both writable and executable at the same
time. This is handled by the generic code in kernel/module.c, and
simply requires the architecture to implement the set_memory() set of
functions, declared with ARCH_HAS_SET_MEMORY.
There's nothing other than these functions required to turn
ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX on, so turn that on too.
With STRICT_MODULE_RWX enabled, there are as many W+X pages at runtime
as there are with CONFIG_MODULES=n (none), so in Russel's testing it works
well on both Hash and Radix book3s64.
There's a TODO in the code for also applying the page permission changes
to the backing pages in the linear mapping: this is pretty simple for
Radix and (seemingly) a lot harder for Hash, so I've left it for now
since there's still a notable security benefit for the patch as-is.
Technically can be enabled without STRICT_KERNEL_RWX, but
that doesn't gets you a whole lot, so we should leave it off by default
until we can get STRICT_KERNEL_RWX to the point where it's enabled by
default.
