[PATCH v2 46/69] mm/sparse-vmemmap: Map shared vmemmap tail pages read-only

[Muchun Song <songmuchun@bytedance.com>]

Shared vmemmap tail pages are now installed through
vmemmap_pte_populate().

Map those shared pages with PAGE_KERNEL_RO so writes to shared tail
vmemmap entries fault immediately instead of silently corrupting shared
metadata.
