powerpc/feature-fixups: Do not patch init section after init
Once init section is freed, attempting to patch init code ends up in the weed. Commit 51c3c62b58b3 ("powerpc: Avoid code patching freed init sections") protected patch_instruction() against that, but it is the responsibility of the caller to ensure that the patched memory is valid. In the same spirit as jump_label with its jump_label_can_update() function, add is_fixup_addr_valid() function to skip patching on freed init section.
