I was confused about this for quite a long :)

On arm64 the changes to direct^w linear map are allowed when 

	debug_page_alloc() || rodata_full

In hibernation we essentially have now

	if (1)
		set_direct_map(something)
	else
		debug_page_alloc_map()

With debug_pagealloc enabled but with rodata_full disabled arm64
versions of set_direct_map_*() will become a nop, so a page that was
unmapped by debug_pagealloc() will not be mapped back.

I'm still puzzled how hibernation might ever need to save a free page,
but that's another story.
