skiroot_defconfig is the only powerpc defconfig with STRICT_KERNEL_RWX
enabled, and if you want memory protection for kernel text you'd want it
for modules too, so enable STRICT_MODULE_RWX there.
Maybe we could now selectt ARCH_OPTIONAL_KERNEL_RWX_DEFAULT in arch/powerpc/Kconfig.

Then this change would not be necessary.

Would be in line with https://github.com/linuxppc/issues/issues/223
