x86: Add RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules 

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

In order to achieve proper protection, layout_sections() have
been modified to align each of the three parts mentioned above
onto page boundary. Next, the corresponding page access
permissions are set right before successful exit from
load_module(). Further, free_module() and sys_init_module have
been modified to set module_core and module_init as RW+NX right
before calling module_free().

By default, the original section layout and access flags are
preserved. When compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX=y,
the patch will page-align each group of sections to ensure that
each page contains only one type of content and will enforce
RO/NX for each group of pages.

  -v1: Initial proof-of-concept patch.
  -v2: The patch have been re-written to reduce the number of #ifdefs
       and to make it architecture-agnostic. Code formatting has also
       been corrected.
  -v3: Opportunistic RO/NX protection is now unconditional. Section
       page-alignment is enabled when CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA=y.
  -v4: Removed most macros and improved coding style.
  -v5: Changed page-alignment and RO/NX section size calculation
  -v6: Fixed comments. Restricted RO/NX enforcement to x86 only
  -v7: Introduced CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, added
       calls to set_all_modules_text_rw() and set_all_modules_text_ro()
       in ftrace
  -v8: updated for compatibility with linux 2.6.33-rc5
  -v9: coding style fixes
 -v10: more coding style fixes
 -v11: minor adjustments for -tip
 -v12: minor adjustments for v2.6.35-rc2-tip
 -v13: minor adjustments for v2.6.37-rc1-tip

bool "Set loadable kernel module data as NX and text as RO"

---help---
This option helps catch unintended modifications to loadable
kernel module's text and read-only data. It also prevents execution
of module data. Such protection may interfere with run-time code
patching and dynamic kernel tracing - and they might also protect
against certain classes of kernel exploits.
