arm64: Fix text patching logic when using fixmap

Patch 2f896d58 ("arm64: use fixmap for text patching") changed
the way we patch the kernel text, using a fixmap when the kernel or
modules are flagged as read only.

Unfortunately, a flaw in the logic makes it fall over when patching
modules without CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX enabled:

This is triggered by the use of virt_to_page() on a module address,
which ends to pointing to Nowhereland if you're lucky, or corrupt
your precious data if not.

This patch fixes the logic by mimicking what is done on arm:
- If we're patching a module and CONFIG_DEBUG_SET_MODULE_RONX is set,
  use vmalloc_to_page().
- If we're patching the kernel and CONFIG_DEBUG_RODATA is set,
  use virt_to_page().
- Otherwise, use the provided address, as we can write to it directly.

Tested on 4.0-rc1 as a KVM guest.
