Thanks, you're right. Will simplify in v2. I'll also clean up the other location where this was copied from. Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert

When the kernel mapping was moved outside of the linear mapping, the kernel memory reservation was increased, to take into account mapping granularity. However, this is done unconditionally, regardless of whether the kernel memory is mapped read-only or not. If this extension is not needed, up to 2 MiB may be lost, which has a big impact on e.g. Canaan K210 (64-bit nommu) platforms with only 8 MiB of RAM. Reclaim the lost memory by only extending the reserved region when needed, i.e. matching the conditional logic around the call to protect_kernel_linear_mapping_text_rodata().
