> 1. Protect kernel sections early instead of after /init.

> 3. Move dynamic relocation section to _init.
> 4. Moved .init sections after .text. This is what most of the other archs

> Changes from v2->v3:
> 1. Added few extra comments to clarify rodata permissions.
> 2. Changed the name of the functions set_memory_default to set_memory_rw_nx.
> 3. Squashed patch 3&5 together as they depend on each other to allow
>    bisectability.
> 4. Removed redundant arguments in protect_kernel_text_data.
>
> Changes from v1->v2:
> 1. .init.text section is aligned with SECTION_ALIGN.
> 2. .init.text is moved to below of .text so that .head.text & .text are in
>    one section.
> 3. We don't need Guo's fix for static object issue.
> 4. Rebased on 5.10-rc1.

> Atish Patra (5):

> RISC-V: Align the .init.text section
> RISC-V: Protect all kernel sections including init early
> RISC-V: Move dynamic relocation section under __init
