Usually "already" means before your series.

Your series is the one that moves protection_map[] so I would have just 
said "Now that protection_map[] has been moved inside those platforms 
which enable ...."

Is this declaration still needed ? I have the feeling that 
protection_map[] is only used in mm/mmap.c now.

Should this be static, as it seems to now be used only in this file ?
And it could also be 'const' instead of __ro_after_init.
