From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@xxxxxxxxxx> powerpc overrides kprobes::alloc_insn_page() to remove writable permissions when STRICT_MODULE_RWX is on. Add definition of jit area to execmem_params to allow using the generic kprobes::alloc_insn_page() with the desired permissions. As powerpc uses breakpoint instructions to inject kprobes, it does not need to constrain kprobe allocations to the modules area and can use the entire vmalloc address space.
