x86/module: Use text_mutex in apply_relocate_add()
Now that the livepatch code no longer needs the text_mutex for changing module permissions, move its usage down to apply_relocate_add(). Note the s390 version of apply_relocate_add() doesn't need to use the text_mutex because it already uses s390_kernel_write_lock, which accomplishes the same task.
