Section .static_call_sites holds data structures that need to be sorted and processed only at module load time. This initial processing happens in static_call_add_module(), which is invoked as a callback to the MODULE_STATE_COMING notification from prepare_coming_module(). The section is never modified afterwards. Make it therefore read-only after module initialization to avoid any (non-)accidental modifications.
