Subject: [RFC PATCH 09/12] arm64: mm: remap kernel page tables read-only at end of init

From: Ard Biesheuvel <[email-masked]>
Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2022 18:30:08 +0100

Now that all the handling is in place to deal with read-only page tables
at runtime, do a pass over the kernel page tables at boot to remap all
the page table pages read-only that were allocated early.
