Export set_memory_ro() and set_memory_rw() calls for use by drivers that need
to have more debug information about who might be writing to memory space.
this was initially developed for use while debugging a memory corruption
problem with e1000e.

Ingo Molnar <mingo@elte.hu> said:
>> +EXPORT_SYMBOL(set_memory_rw);
> that's fine, as long as you make it kernel-internal EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL()

patch was modified with this suggestion.
