It might be good to split out the freeing of the page
tables into a separate patch for review since it looks to be
separate of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.

pte_offset_kernel -> pmd_page_vaddr which calls __va already. Is
there another way to get the physical address without having to go
pa -> va -> pa again?

Was the switch from flush_tlb_all -> flush_tlb_kernel_range found from
code inspection or as part of something else? Do you have any performance
data about from this switch?

Do you need the EXPORT_SYMBOL right now?

Everywhere else you've switched to using flush_tlb_kernel_range,
why the switch here to flush_tlb_all?

We already have some of this infrastructure to set page attributes
in arch/arm64/mm/pageattr.c . We should be leveraging that for
kernel_map_pages.

Return a real error code here and not just -1

This looks like a less friendly use of goto. Any change we could turn this
into a real loop?
