This patch is a logical extension of the protection provided by
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA to LKMs. The protection is provided by splitting
module_core and module_init into three logical parts each and setting
appropriate page access permissions for each individual section:

  1. Code: RO+X
  2. RO data: RO+NX
  3. RW data: RW+NX

Thanks, applied!

I also applied this to the -tip tree... do you prefer to carry it or should I leave it as is?
