One potential issue I'm seeing is WARN_ON() followed by BUG_ON(). They're a bit
duplicate. I would suggest to remove the WARN_ON() and print informative messages
in rsi_set_memory_range().
setup_arch
arm64_rsi_setup_memory // BUG_ON(error)
rsi_set_memory_range_protected_safe
rsi_set_memory_range // WARN_ON(error)
Thanks,
Gavin
