This is also the intention of the original #ifdef... statement and still valid for now. Note that this still keeps the effect of the fix of the following commit, 38f054d549a8 ("modules: always page-align module section allocations"), since when CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_STRICT_MODULE_RWX is enabled, module pages are aligned.
