This patch set implements CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA on Powerpc32 after fixing a few issues related to kernel code page protection.
Changes in v2: Instead of making the entire kernel RW to patch code in ftrace, we now only change the rights on the page to be modified Changes in v3: Changing the rights is performed in patch_instruction() instead of being done only in ftrace, so that other functionnalities like jump_label also works.
