objtool: Don't make .altinstructions writable
When objtool creates the .altinstructions section, it sets the SHF_WRITE flag to make the section writable -- unless the section had already been previously created by the kernel. The mismatch between kernel-created and objtool-created section flags can cause failures with external tooling (kpatch-build). And the section doesn't need to be writable anyway. Make the section flags consistent with the kernel's.
