Comment 4 for bug 1547718

Looks it is enough to just revert
'e96e20134729121689a0089537c6ed(module: clean up RO/NX handling)'
for fixing the issue.

But the interesting thing is that there isn't the problem in upstream kernel
4.5-rc5, and the commit(module: clean up RO/NX handling) isn't reverted
in upstream yet.

So looks there is one real fix in upstream kernel.

Thanks,
