With !CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX, module text and rodata pages are
writable, and the debug_align() macro allows the module struct to share
a page with executable text.  When klp_write_module_reloc() calls
set_memory_ro() on the page, it effectively turns the module struct into
a read-only structure, resulting in a page fault when load_module() does
"mod->state = MODULE_STATE_LIVE".
