[PATCH 4.14 19/56] module: Fix livepatch/ftrace module text permissions race

[ Upstream commit 9f255b632bf12c4dd7fc31caee89aa991ef75176 ]

It's possible for livepatch and ftrace to be toggling a module's text
permissions at the same time, resulting in the following panic:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffffc005b1d9
#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0003) - permissions violation

The above panic occurs when loading two modules at the same time with
ftrace enabled, where at least one of the modules is a livepatch module:

CPU0 CPU1
klp_enable_patch()
klp_init_object_loaded()
module_disable_ro()
ftrace_module_enable()
ftrace_arch_code_modify_post_process()
set_all_modules_text_ro()
klp_write_object_relocations()
apply_relocate_add()
*patches read-only code* - BOOM

A similar race exists when toggling ftrace while loading a livepatch
module.

Fix it by ensuring that the livepatch and ftrace code patching
operations -- and their respective permissions changes -- are protected
by the text_mutex.
