Overly long lines.  Independ of that complex macros are generally much
more readable if they are written more function-like, that is the name
and paramtes are kept on a line of their own:

#define is_kernel_mapping(x) \
	((x) >= kernel_virt_addr && (x) < (kernel_virt_addr + load_sz))

But what is the reason to not make them type-safe inline functions
anyway?

... especially for something complex like this.

Overly long line as well.  And useless braces.

Same here.

If the entire function is different for config symbols please just
split it into two separate functions.  But to make the difference more
clear IS_ENABLED might fit better here:

static __init pgprot_t pgprot_from_va(uintptr_t va)
{
	if (is_va_kernel_text(va))
		return PAGE_KERNEL_READ_EXEC;
	if (is_va_kernel_init_text(va))
		return IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_64BIT) ?
			PAGE_KERNEL_READ_EXEC : PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC;
	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_64BIT) && is_va_kernel_lm_alias_text(va))
		return PAGE_KERNEL_READ;
	return PAGE_KERNEL;
}

Preferable with comments explaining the 32-bit vs 64-bit difference.

Lots of unreadable overly lone lines.  Why not add a helper and do
something like:

static void set_kernel_memory_ro(char *startp, char *endp)
{
        unsigned long start = (unsigned long)startp;
	unsigned long end = (unsigned long)endp;

	set_memory_ro(start, (start - end) >> PAGE_SHIFT);
}

        set_kernel_memory_ro(_start_rodata, _data);
	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_64BIT))
		set_kernel_memory_ro(lm_alias(__start_rodata), lm_alias(_data));

Same comment as for the other version.  This could become:

static __init pgprot_t pgprot_from_va(uintptr_t va)
{       
	if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_64BIT) && !is_kernel_mapping(va))
		return PAGE_KERNEL;
	return PAGE_KERNEL_EXEC;
}

Overly long line.

Same here.  But why not pass in a "pgprot_t ram_pgprot" instead of the
bool, which would be self-documenting.
