That's right.
With CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX the image will initially be PAGE_KERNEL
from bpf_jit_alloc_exec() calling module_alloc(). So not executable.
bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro() will then remove write and add executable.

Without CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX the image will initially be
PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC from module_alloc().
bpf_jit_binary_lock_ro() will remove write, but until that point it
will have been write + exec.
