module: replace module_layout with module_memory
module_layout manages different types of memory (text, data, rodata, etc.)
in one allocation, which is problematic for some reasons:
1. It is hard to enable CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.
2. It is hard to use huge pages in modules (and not break strict rwx).
3. Many archs uses module_layout for arch-specific data, but it is not
obvious how these data are used (are they RO, RX, or RW?)
Improve the scenario by replacing 2 (or 3) module_layout per module with
up to 7 module_memory per module:
MOD_TEXT,
MOD_DATA,
MOD_RODATA,
MOD_RO_AFTER_INIT,
MOD_INIT_TEXT,
MOD_INIT_DATA,
MOD_INIT_RODATA,
and allocating them separately. This adds slightly more entries to
mod_tree (from up to 3 entries per module, to up to 7 entries per
module). However, this at most adds a small constant overhead to
__module_address(), which is expected to be fast.
Various archs use module_layout for different data. These data are put
into different module_memory based on their location in module_layout.
IOW, data that used to go with text is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_TEXT;
data that used to go with data is allocated with MOD_MEM_TYPE_DATA, etc.
module_memory simplifies quite some of the module code. For example,
ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC is a lot cleaner, as it just uses a
different allocator for the data. kernel/module/strict_rwx.c is also
much cleaner with module_memory.
