module: don't annotate ROX memory as kmemleak_not_leak()
The ROX memory allocations are part of a larger vmalloc allocation and
annotating them with kmemleak_not_leak() confuses kmemleak.
Skip kmemleak_not_leak() annotations for the ROX areas.
Fixes: c287c0723329 ("module: switch to execmem API for remapping as RW and restoring ROX")
Fixes: 64f6a4e10c05 ("x86: re-enable EXECMEM_ROX support")
