Replace the indirect string references in struct addr_marker and struct
prot_bits with char array fields. Under a relocatable kernel, this not
only saves 8 bytes in the absolute address that we no longer have to record,
it also saves 24 bytes of init data (the size of a RELA entry) since this
address no longer requires relocation processing at boot.

I am aware that this is a drop in the ocean, but I thought I'd include it
anyway, since many people may not even realize that this issue exists in
the first place.
