[1] after set_kernel_text_ro, PMD_SECT_AP_WRITE is set
in corresponding PMD.
[2] after set_kernel_text_rw, PMD_SECT_AP_WRITE is also set
in corresponding PMD.
as shown in [7/8] in this patch series.

[3] As far as I could understand,
I wonder if PMD_SECT_AP_WRITE should be cleared
when setting RO.
btw, would you please shed light on PMD_SECT_APX,
since it is not included in both MT_MEMORY_RWX and
MT_MEMORY_RW mm types.
[MT_MEMORY_RWX] = {
.prot_pte = L_PTE_PRESENT | L_PTE_YOUNG | L_PTE_DIRTY,
.prot_l1 = PMD_TYPE_TABLE,
.prot_sect = PMD_TYPE_SECT | PMD_SECT_AP_WRITE,
.domain = DOMAIN_KERNEL,
