The mixed mode thunking routine requires a part of it to be mapped 1:1, and for this reason, we currently map the entire kernel .text read/write in the EFI page tables, which is bad. In fact, the kernel_map_pages_in_pgd() invocation that installs this mapping is entirely redundant, since all of DRAM is already 1:1 mapped read/write in the EFI page tables when we reach this point, which means that .rodata is mapped read-write as well. So let's remap both .text and .rodata read-only in the EFI page tables.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
