This new struct composes the linker provided (vector,len) section,
and provides a place to add other __dyndbg[] state-data later:
descs - the vector of descriptors in __dyndbg section.
num_descs - length of the data/section.
Use it, in several different ways, as follows:
In lib/dynamic_debug.c:
ddebug_add_module(): Alter params-list, replacing 2 args (array,index)
with a struct _ddebug_info * containing them both, with room for
expansion. This helps future-proof the function prototype against the
looming addition of class-map info into the dyndbg-state, by providing
a place to add more member fields later.
NB: later add static struct _ddebug_info builtins_state declaration,
not needed yet.
ddebug_add_module() is called in 2 contexts:
In dynamic_debug_init(), declare, init a struct _ddebug_info di
auto-var to use as a cursor. Then iterate over the prdbg blocks of
the builtin modules, and update the di cursor before calling
_add_module for each.
Its called from kernel/module/main.c:load_info() for each loaded
module:
In internal.h, alter struct load_info, replacing the dyndbg array,len
fields with an embedded _ddebug_info containing them both; and
populate its members in find_module_sections().
The 2 calling contexts differ in that _init deals with contiguous
subranges of __dyndbgs[] section, packed together, while loadable
modules are added one at a time.
So rename ddebug_add_module() into outer/__inner fns, call __inner
from _init, and provide the offset into the builtin __dyndbgs[] where
the module's prdbgs reside. The cursor provides start, len of the
subrange for each. The offset will be used later to pack the results
of builtin __dyndbg_sites[] de-duplication, and is 0 and unneeded for
loadable modules,
Note:
kernel/module/main.c includes <dynamic_debug.h> for struct
_ddeubg_info. This might be prone to include loops, since its also
included by printk.h. Nothing has broken in robot-land on this.

This is due to strict_align() being a no-op when
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is not selected.
Transform strict_align() macro into an inline function. It will
allow type checking and avoid the selfAssignment warning.

Currently, only the initial module that tainted the kernel is
recorded e.g. when an out-of-tree module is loaded.
The purpose of this patch is to allow the kernel to maintain a record of
each unloaded module that taints the kernel. So, in addition to
displaying a list of linked modules (see print_modules()) e.g. in the
event of a detected bad page, unloaded modules that carried a taint/or
taints are displayed too. A tainted module unload count is maintained.
The number of tracked modules is not fixed. This feature is disabled by
default.

Add CONFIG_ARCH_WANTS_MODULES_DATA_IN_VMALLOC to allow architectures
to request having modules data in vmalloc area instead of module area.
This is required on powerpc book3s/32 in order to set data non
executable, because it is not possible to set executability on page
basis, this is done per 256 Mbytes segments. The module area has exec
right, vmalloc area has noexec.
This can also be useful on other powerpc/32 in order to maximize the
chance of code being close enough to kernel core to avoid branch
trampolines.

In order to allow separation of data from text, add another layout,
called data_layout. For architectures requesting separation of text
and data, only text will go in core_layout and data will go in
data_layout.
For architectures which keep text and data together, make data_layout
an alias of core_layout, that way data_layout can be used for all
data manipulations, regardless of whether data is in core_layout or
data_layout.

debug_align() was added by commit 84e1c6bb38 ("x86: Add RO/NX
protection for loadable kernel modules")
At that time the config item was CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX.
But nowadays it has changed to CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX and
debug_align() is confusing because it has nothing to do with
DEBUG.

Move module_enable_x() together with module_enable_nx() and
module_enable_ro().
Those three functions are going together, they are all used
to set up the correct page flags on the different sections.
As module_enable_x() is used independently of
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX, build strict_rwx.c all the time and
use IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX) when relevant.

module_enable_x() has nothing to do with CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX
allthough by coincidence architectures who need module_enable_x() are
selection CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX.
Enable module_enable_x() for everyone everytime. If an architecture
already has module text set executable, it's a no-op.
Don't check text_size alignment. When CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set
the verification is already done in frob_rodata(). When
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is not set it is not a big deal to have the
start of data as executable. Just make sure we entirely get the last
page when the boundary is not aligned.
And don't BUG on misaligned base as some architectures like nios2
use kmalloc() for allocating modules. So just bail out in that case.
If that's a problem, a page fault will occur later anyway.
