Commit 1404d6f13e47 ("arm64: dump: Add checking for writable and exectuable pages")
has successfully identified code that leaves a page with W+X
permissions.

kprobes allocates a writable executable page with module_alloc() in
order to store executable code.
Reworked to that when allocate a page it sets mode RO. Inspired by
commit 63fef14fc98a ("kprobes/x86: Make insn buffer always ROX and use text_poke()").
