[PATCH 0/2] flag contiguous PTEs in linear mapping

This is a rebase of the previous contiguous ptes in linear map patches
on top of Mark Rutland's fixmap changes. Those changes appear to be sufficient
to allow this patch set to boot on JunoR2, seattle and the xgene/m400. I've
also done basic testing with RODATA turned on. In all cases with ACPI systems.
This patch also adds the ability to align 64k kernels on the 2M CONT boundary
which helps to assure that a number of the sections are completely mapped with
CONT bits. There remain a number of holes due to smaller remapping operations
that don't really affect the page protection states. That can be worked around
in a number of cases if the code gets smart enough to detect that the break
doesn't result in an actual change in permissions. Some of these are visible
in the included example where its not initially obvious why a contigious 2M
region isn't marked as such until digging into it.
With 64k pages, and section alignment enabled the kernel looks like:
