I'm amazed by the weird and inconsistent breakup of initializations.

What exactly is wrong with something like:

static struct execmem_info execmem_info __ro_after_init;

struct execmem_info __init *execmem_arch_setup(void)
{
	execmem_info = (struct execmem_info){
		.ranges = {
			[EXECMEM_DEFAULT] = {
				.start	= MODULES_VADDR,
				.end	= MODULES_END,
				.pgprot	= PAGE_KERNEL,
				.alignment = 1,
			},
		},
	};
	return &execmem_info;
}
