arm: use fixmap for text patching when text is RO
Use fixmaps for text patching when the kernel text is read-only,
inspired by x86. This makes jump labels and kprobes work with the
currently available CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX and the upcoming
CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA options.

[kees: fixed up for merge with "arm: use generic fixmap.h"]
[kees: added parse acquire/release annotations to pass C=1 builds]
[kees: always use stop_machine to keep TLB flushing local]
