With both options set, we're seeing an Oops while loading bridge.ko, as
netfilter is trying to use jump labels on the module .text after it's
been marked read-only. I'll cook up a patch to do what X86 does and
remap the page read-write while it's being patched, but for 3.14, we
should mark them as exclusive so others don't hit this crash.
