Great work! I think this will need some further changes, though, since
it doesn't look to me like this would pass LKDTM's tests if it was
built as a module. (This is missing from my ARM attempt too... I
haven't figured out how to set the domain on the kernel modules...)

You're not going to be able to do it very easily.  The only way I can
think of achieving it would be to split the module area into one
chunk for text, one chunk for write-rare and one chunk for data.

Well, my intention was to just make the entire module area
DOMAIN_WR_RARE. It's overly permissive in the sense that non-data
changes could be made, but this is already an improvement over either
not having this feature at all or x86's version which makes all of RAM
writable.
