[PATCH RFC 05/10] x86/modules: Use real perm_allocations

From: Rick Edgecombe
Date: Fri Nov 20 2020 - 15:32:04 EST


x86 relocations require all of the text sections to be within 2GB of
eachother. So as long as the allocations are somewhere in the module area,
relocations can be applied. So relax the restriction of having the module
regions for a module core or init area be virtually contiguous.

Also, apply relocations at the writable address of the perm_allocation to
support a future implementation that has the writable address in a
different allocation.
