set_memory_ro(), set_memory_nx(), set_memory_x() and other helpers
can fail and return an error. In that case the memory might not be
protected as expected and the module loading has to be aborted to
avoid security issues.

Check return value of all calls to set_memory_XX() and handle
error if any.

Add a check to not call set_memory_XX() on NULL pointers as some
architectures may not like it allthough numpages is always 0 in that
case. This also avoid a useless call to set_vm_flush_reset_perms().

v2:
- Bail out early from module_set_memory() when address is NULL.
- Properly clear bug list when module_set_memory() fails in complete_formation().

This patch applies on top of modules/modules-next branch

Yay! Glad to see this happening. Universal __must_check for set_memory_*()
starts to appear on the horizon. ;)
