powerpc: Set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX
To enable strict module RWX on powerpc, set: CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y You should also have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX=y set to have any real security benefit. ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is set to require ARCH_HAS_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. This is due to a quirk in arch/Kconfig and arch/powerpc/Kconfig that makes STRICT_MODULE_RWX *on by default* in configurations where STRICT_KERNEL_RWX is *unavailable*. Since this doesn't make much sense, and module RWX without kernel RWX doesn't make much sense, having the same dependencies as kernel RWX works around this problem. Book3s/32 603 and 604 core processors are not able to write protect kernel pages so do not set ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX for Book3s/32.
