The first patch that breaks XIP build is rather patch 04/13, currently
commit 52a34d45419f ("mm/execmem, arch: convert remaining overrides of
module_alloc to execmem") in mm.git/mm-unstable.

The hunk below is a fix for that and the attached patch is the updated
version of 835bc9685f45 ("arch: make execmem setup available regardless of
CONFIG_MODULES")

Andrew, please let me know if you'd like to me to resend these differently.
