Re: [PATCH 2/2] powerpc/strict_rwx: fixup region splitting

We were aggressive with splitting regions and missed the case
when _stext and __init_begin completely overlap addr and addr+mapping.

This patch fixes that case and allows us to keep the largest possible
mapping through the overlap. The patch also simplies the check
into a function
Please do the fix in one patch, which we can backport if necessary, and
then move it into a function in a separate patch.

cheers
