I've given this a spin on Juno, with and without the config option
selected, and with and without the command line option. I've also given
it a spin on Seattle with inline KASAN also enabled.
I wasn't sure how to deliberately trigger a failure, but those all
booted fine, and the dumepd page tables looks right, so FWIW:

I have a few minor comments below, and with those fixed up:

I'm not sure this quite captures the rationale, as we only care about
the linear map using pages (AFAIK), and the earliness only matters
w.r.t. the DTB mapping. How about:
/*
* If debug_page_alloc is enabled we must map the linear map
* using pages. However, other mappings created by
* create_mapping_noalloc must use sections in some cases. Allow
* sections to be used in those cases, where no pgtable_alloc
* function is provided.
*/
Does that sound ok to you?
As a future optimisation, I think we can allow sections when mapping
permanent kernel chunks (.e.g .rodata and .text), as these shouldn't
contain pages available for dynamic allocation. That would require using
something other than the presence of pgtable_alloc to determine when we
should force page usage.

Nit: spaces around each '*' here, please.
