Subject: [PATCH 1/3] x86/hyperv: allocate the hypercall page with only read and execute bits

Avoid a W^X violation cause by the fact that PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC includes the
writable bit.

For this resurrect the removed PAGE_KERNEL_RX definitіon, but as
PAGE_KERNEL_ROX to match arm64 and powerpc.

Fixes: 78bb17f76edc ("x86/hyperv: use vmalloc_exec for the hypercall page")
