Ok, here's what I came up with. Have not tested all corner cases, still
need to write docs - but I think this gives us a nicer interface than
what bpf/kprobes/etc. have been doing, and it does the sub-page sized
allocations I need.

With an additional tweak to module_alloc() (not done in this patch yet)
we avoid ever mapping in pages both writeable and executable:

Subject: [PATCH] mm: jit/text allocator

This provides a new, very simple slab allocator for jit/text, i.e. bpf,
ftrace trampolines, or bcachefs unpack functions.

With this API we can avoid ever mapping pages both writeable and
executable (not implemented in this patch: need to tweak
module_alloc()), and it also supports sub-page sized allocations.
