x86/vmlinux: Actually use _etext for the end of the text segment

Various calculations are using the end of the exception table (which
does not need to be executable) as the end of the text segment. Instead,
in preparation for moving the exception table into RO_DATA, move _etext
after the exception table and update the calculations.
