PATCH v2 1/1 arm64: kgdb: handle read-only text / modules

Handle read-only cases (CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA/CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX) by using aarch64_insn_write() instead of probe_kernel_write(). See how this works:

For v3.18-v3.19, we also need commit f6242cac10427c54 ("arm64: Fix text patching logic when using fixmap"), so as to not break the !CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX case.

With that:

Thanks,
Mark.

Ah, thank you.
I will post the patch as v2.1.
