[PATCH] arm64: kernel: remove SHF_WRITE|SHF_EXECINSTR from .idmap.text

[ndesaulniers at google.com]

commit d54170812ef1 ("arm64: fix .idmap.text assertion for large kernels")
modified some of the section assembler directives that declare
.idmap.text to be SHF_ALLOC instead of
SHF_ALLOC|SHF_WRITE|SHF_EXECINSTR.

This patch fixes up the remaining stragglers that were left behind.

Because .idmap.text is merged into .text, LLD will retain the
SHF_EXECINSTR on .text, in addition to the synthetic .got.  This doesn't
matter to the kernel loader, but syzkaller is having trouble symboling
such sections. Clean this up while we additionally fix up syzkaller. Add
Fixes tag so that this doesn't precede related change in stable.
