Using module_alloc() as the default implementation of generic
text_alloc() does not sound right to me.

I would suggest rename module_alloc() to text_alloc() on x86, as Peter
proposed and then add text_alloc_kprobes() that can be overridden by the
architectures. x86 could use text_alloc(), arm64 vmalloc() with options
of their choice and the fallback would remain module_alloc(). Something
like (untested) patch below:
