Subject: [PATCH 11/13] x86/mm/pageattr: Don't implicitly allow _PAGE_RW in kernel_map_pages_in_pgd()

From: Sai Praneeth <sai.praneeth.prakhya@...el.com>

As part of the preparation for the EFI_MEMORY_RO flag added in the UEFI
2.5 specification, we need the ability to map pages in kernel page
tables without _PAGE_RW being set.

Modify kernel_map_pages_in_pgd() to require its callers to pass _PAGE_RW
if the pages need to be mapped read/write. Otherwise, we'll map the
pages as read-only.
