s390/mm: use VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS in module_alloc()
Make use of the set_direct_map() calls for module allocations.
In particular:
- All changes to read-only permissions in kernel VA mappings are also
applied to the direct mapping. Note that execute permissions are
intentionally not applied to the direct mapping in order to make
sure that all allocated pages within the direct mapping stay
non-executable
- module_alloc() passes the VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS to __vmalloc_node_range()
to make sure that all implicit permission changes made to the direct
mapping are reset when the allocated vm area is freed again
Side effects: the direct mapping will be fragmented depending on how many
vm areas with VM_FLUSH_RESET_PERMS and/or explicit page permission changes
are allocated and freed again.
For example, just after boot of a system the direct mapping statistics look
like:
$cat /proc/meminfo
