[PATCH v4 14/16] module: Remove set_all_modules_text_*()

From: Peter Zijlstra
Date: Fri Oct 18 2019 - 03:53:02 EST


Now that there are no users of set_all_modules_text_*() left, remove
it.

While it appears nds32 uses it, it does not have STRICT_MODULE_RWX and
therefore ends up with the NOP stubs.
