We had SET_MODULE_RONX in v3.17, and we had KGDB before that, so we need
something for v3.17+.

This changes the endianness of saved_instr (on BE), but it looks like
that's handed as an opaque token by the core code anyway, so that should
be fine.
This also renders arch_kgdb_ops.gdb_bpt_instr unused. Can/should we get
rid of that?

We also need a few additional includes:
<asm/debug-monitors.h> # for BREAK_INSTR_SIZE, AARCH64_BREAK_KGDB_DYN_DBG
<asm/insn.h> # for AARCH64_INSN_SIZE, insn_{read,write}
<linux/bug.h> # for BUILD_BUG_ON()
I take it that we're protected against nesting within
aarch64_insn_write(), so that we can't deadlock on patch_lock?
Other than that, this looks good to me.
Thanks,
Mark.
