One potential issue I'm seeing is WARN_ON() followed by BUG_ON(). They're a bit
duplicate. I would suggest to remove the WARN_ON() and print informative messages
in rsi_set_memory_range().

   setup_arch
   arm64_rsi_setup_memory                    // BUG_ON(error)
   rsi_set_memory_range_protected_safe
   rsi_set_memory_range                      // WARN_ON(error)

Thanks,
Gavin
