From: Russell Currey <rus...@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
