livepatch/core: Revert module_enable_ro and module_disable_ro



hulk inclusion
category: feature
bugzilla: 51921
CVE: NA

---------------------------

After commit d556e1be ("livepatch: Remove module_disable_ro() usage")
and commit 0d9fbf78 ("module: Remove module_disable_ro()") and
commit e6eff437 ("module: Make module_enable_ro() static again") merged,
the module_disable_ro is removed and module_enable_ro is make static.

It's ok for x86/ppc platform because the livepatch module relocation is
done by text poke func which internally modify the text addr by remap
to high virtaddr which has write permission.

However for arm/arm64 platform, it's apply_relocate[_add] still directly
modify the text code so we should change the module text permission before
relocation. Otherwise it will lead to following problem:

Though the permission change is not necessary to x86/ppc platform, consider
that the jump_label_register api may modify the text code either, we just
put the change handle here instead of putting it in arch-specific relocate.

Besides, the jump_label_module_nb callback called in jump_label_register
also maybe need motify the module code either, it sort and swap the jump
entries if necessary. So just disable ro before jump_label handling and
restore it back.
