Subject: [PATCH v3 4/8] x86: Use __pa_symbol instead of __pa on C visible
	symbols

When I made an attempt at separating __pa_symbol and __pa I found that there
were a number of cases where __pa was used on an obvious symbol.

I also caught one non-obvious case as _brk_start and _brk_end are based on the
address of __brk_base which is a C visible symbol.

In mark_rodata_ro I was able to reduce the overhead of kernel symbol to
virtual memory translation by using a combination of __va(__pa_symbol())
instead of page_address(virt_to_page()).

Signed-off-by: Alexander Duyck <alexander.h.duyck@...el.com>

v3:  Added changes to init_64.c function mark_rodata_ro to avoid unnecessary
     conversion to and from a page when all that is wanted is a virtual
     address.
