[PATCH v13 3/8] powerpc/kprobes: Mark newly allocated probes as ROX

[Jordan Niethe]

From: Russell Currey <ruscur at russell.cc>

Add the arch specific insn page allocator for powerpc. This allocates
ROX pages if STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is enabled. These pages are only written
to with patch_instruction() which is able to write RO pages.

v9: - vmalloc_exec() no longer exists
    - Set the page to RW before freeing it
v10: - use __vmalloc_node_range()
v11: - Neaten up
v12: - Switch from __vmalloc_node_range() to module_alloc()
v13: Use strict_kernel_rwx_enabled()
