powerpc: Mark .opd section read-only
[ Upstream commit 3091f5fc5f1df7741ddf326561384e0997eca2a1 ] .opd section contains function descriptors used to locate functions in the kernel. If someone is able to modify a function descriptor he will be able to run arbitrary kernel function instead of another. To avoid that, move .opd section inside read-only memory.
