Commit45ff3c5595("powerpc/kasan: Fix parallel loading of modules.") added spinlocks to manage parallele module loading. Since then commit47febbeeec("powerpc/32: Force KASAN_VMALLOC for modules") converted the module loading to KASAN_VMALLOC. The spinlocking has then become unneeded and can be removed to simplify kasan_init_shadow_page_tables() Also remove inclusion of linux/moduleloader.h and linux/vmalloc.h which are not needed anymore since the removal of modules management.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
