From: "Mike Rapoport (IBM)" <rppt@kernel.org>
Several architectures override module_alloc() only to define address
range for code allocations different than VMALLOC address space.
Provide a generic implementation in execmem that uses the parameters for
address space ranges, required alignment and page protections provided
by architectures.
The architectures must fill execmem_info structure and implement
execmem_arch_setup() that returns a pointer to that structure. This way the
execmem initialization won't be called from every architecture, but rather
from a central place, namely a core_initcall() in execmem.
The execmem provides execmem_alloc() API that wraps __vmalloc_node_range()
with the parameters defined by the architectures. If an architecture does
not implement execmem_arch_setup(), execmem_alloc() will fall back to
module_alloc().

I'm amazed by the weird and inconsistent breakup of initializations.
What exactly is wrong with something like:
static struct execmem_info execmem_info __ro_after_init;
struct execmem_info __init *execmem_arch_setup(void)
{
execmem_info = (struct execmem_info){
.ranges = {
[EXECMEM_DEFAULT] = {
.start = MODULES_VADDR,
.end = MODULES_END,
.pgprot = PAGE_KERNEL,
.alignment = 1,
},
},
};
return &execmem_info;
}

Then the #ifdef CONFIG_SPARC64 could be dropped and the code would be

Just a drive-by comment.
