Subject: [PATCH] kernel/module.c: Mark module state before set RO and NX regions

In some architectures like arm/arm64, set_memory_*() check module address
and state as well. Mark module state before set RO and NX regions for
the routine is passed.

It will fix wrong RO/NX protection for loadable kernel modules on arm/arm64.
