execmem: drop unused execmem_update_copy()

Patch series "x86: enable EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for ftrace and kprobes", v3.

These patches enable use of EXECMEM_ROX_CACHE for ftrace and kprobes
allocations on x86.

They also include some ground work in execmem.

Since the execmem model for caching large ROX pages changed from the
initial assumption that the memory that is allocated from ROX cache is
always ROX to the current state where memory can be temporarily made RW
and then restored to ROX, we can stop using text poking to update it. 
This also saves the hassle of trying lock text_mutex in
execmem_cache_free() when kprobes already hold that mutex.


This patch (of 8):

The execmem_update_copy() that used text poking was required when memory
allocated from ROX cache was always read-only.  Since now its permissions
can be switched to read-write there is no need in a function that updates
memory with text poking.

Remove it.
