On PPC_85xx, enabling DEBUG_PAGEALLOC without STRICT_KERNEL_RWX activates the DATA_SHIFT range of 20..24, but since the PAGE_SHIFT default is outside the range (12), kconfig adjusts it to 20, causing 1mb alignment instead of 4kb. However, the larger alignment is only needed for the separate kernel permissions provided by STRICT_KERNEL_RWX.
Since PPC_85xx uses page poisoning for DEBUG_PAGEALLOC and does not support KFENCE, let's restrict this range to STRICT_KERNEL_RWX. This out-of-range default was detected by kconfirm, a static analysis tool for Kconfig.
