Mike Rapoport (IBM) 7582b7be16 kprobes: remove dependency on CONFIG_MODULES
kprobes depended on CONFIG_MODULES because it has to allocate memory for
code.

Since code allocations are now implemented with execmem, kprobes can be
enabled in non-modular kernels.

Add #ifdef CONFIG_MODULE guards for the code dealing with kprobes inside
modules, make CONFIG_KPROBES select CONFIG_EXECMEM and drop the
dependency of CONFIG_KPROBES on CONFIG_MODULES.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
