How would that work? With rodata_full disabled, the linear region is not
mapped down to pages, and so there is no way we can manipulate linear
aliases at page granularity.

This is a delta mask, so no need to pull in the PTE_MAYBE_NG or other
attributes that we know we haven't changed.

No. We should restore the attributes that we cleared when manipulating
the linear aliases. There isn't a lot of code that does that, so I don't
see the need to use PAGE_KERNEL here.

It is related. CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP introduces references to
__kernel_map_pages() in generic code, so enabling
CONFIG_ARCH_HAS_SET_DIRECT_MAP should make __kernel_map_pages()
available unconditionally as well.

It is related.
