Russell Currey 9b9f256714 powerpc/module_64: Fix livepatching for RO modules 
commit 8734b41b3e upstream.

Livepatching a loaded module involves applying relocations through
apply_relocate_add(), which attempts to write to read-only memory when
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y.  Work around this by performing these
writes through the text poke area by using patch_instruction().

R_PPC_REL24 is the only relocation type generated by the kpatch-build
userspace tool or klp-convert kernel tree that I observed applying a
relocation to a post-init module.

A more comprehensive solution is planned, but using patch_instruction()
for R_PPC_REL24 on should serve as a sufficient fix.

This does have a performance impact, I observed ~15% overhead in
module_load() on POWER8 bare metal with checksum verification off.

README 

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
