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
v12: - Switch from __vmalloc_node_range() to module_alloc()
v13: Use strict_kernel_rwx_enabled()
v14: Use strict_module_rwx_enabled()
