[PATCH AUTOSEL 5.1 048/375] x86/ftrace: Set trampoline pages as executable

From: Nadav Amit <namit@vmware.com>

[ Upstream commit 3c0dab44e22782359a0a706cbce72de99a22aa75 ]

Since alloc_module() will not set the pages as executable soon, set
ftrace trampoline pages as executable after they are allocated.

For the time being, do not change ftrace to use the text_poke()
interface. As a result, ftrace still breaks W^X.
