s390: add DEBUG_RODATA support
git commit d2aa1acad22f ("mm/init: Add 'rodata=off' boot cmdline parameter to disable read-only kernel mappings") adds a bogus warning to the console which states that s390 does not support kernel memory protection. This however is not true. We do support that since a couple of years however in a different way than the author of the above named patch expected. To get rid of the misleading message implement the mark_rodata_ro function and emit a message which states the amount of memory which was write protected already earlier. This is the same what parisc currently does. We currently do not support the kernel parameter "rodata=off" which would allow to write to the rodata section again. However since we have this feature since years without any problems there is no reason to add support for this.
