powerpc/module_64: Fix livepatching for RO modules

Livepatching a loaded module involves applying relocations through
apply_relocate_add(), which attempts to write to read-only memory when
CONFIG_STRICT_MODULE_RWX=y.  Work around this by performing these
writes through the text poke area by using patch_instruction().

R_PPC_REL24 is the only relocation type generated by the kpatch-build
userspace tool or klp-convert kernel tree that I observed applying a
relocation to a post-init module.

A more comprehensive solution is planned, but using patch_instruction()
for R_PPC_REL24 on should serve as a sufficient fix.

This does have a performance impact, I observed ~15% overhead in
module_load() on POWER8 bare metal with checksum verification off.
