Currently even with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX we leave the __init text marked
executable after init, which is bad.
Add a hook to mark it NX (no-execute) before we free it, and implement
it for radix and hash.
Note that we use __init_end as the end address, not _einittext,
because overlaps_kernel_text() uses __init_end, because there are
additional executable sections other than .init.text between
__init_begin and __init_end.
Tested on radix and hash with:
0:mon> p $__init_begin
*** 400 exception occurred

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
