Currently, all memblocks are mapped with PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC and the strict
permissions are only enforced after /init starts. This leaves the kernel
vulnerable from possible buggy built-in modules.

Apply permissions to individual sections as early as possible.

A comment about that rodata permissions are set later would be nice
here.
