Slightly arbitary really - it gives a nice 8-byte alignment to the data.
.align 2 would also be sufficient.

Please can you test my patch and let us know if it solves your problem
(or even if it works! I haven't tested it beyond build-testing.)

Yay. Sorry for giving you a different patch - Mark is quite right that
there's a better solution to this problem, which is eliminating the
set_kernel_text_rw() call. The only reason I cooked up the patch was
doing that would be more in-depth (as you can see from the increased
size of the patch.)
