[PATCH v3 13/13] bpf: remove CONFIG_BPF_JIT dependency on CONFIG_MODULES of

From: Mike Rapoport <rppt@kernel.org>

Subsystem: bpf [general] (safe dynamic programs and tools), the rest · Maintainers: Alexei Starovoitov, Daniel Borkmann, Andrii Nakryiko, Eduard Zingerman, Kumar Kartikeya Dwivedi, Linus Torvalds

From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@kernel.org>

BPF just-in-time compiler depended on CONFIG_MODULES because it used
module_alloc() to allocate memory for the generated code.

Since code allocations are now implemented with execmem, drop dependency of
CONFIG_BPF_JIT on CONFIG_MODULES and make it select CONFIG_EXECMEM.
