Subject: [RFC 3/7] module: modify memory attrs for __ro_mostly_after_init during module_init/exit
`__ro_mostly_after_init` is almost like `__ro_after_init`. The section is
read-only as same as `__ro_after_init` after kernel init. This patch makes
`__ro_mostly_after_init` section read-write temporarily only during
module_init/module_exit.
