It is possible to have more than one mm (init_mm) during memory
permission fixes. In my case it was caused by request_module
from drivers/net/phy/phy_device.c and leads to following Oops
during free_initmem() on RV32 platform:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address c0800000

This is because request_module attempted to modprobe module, so it created
new mm with the copy of kernel's page table. And this copy won't be updated
in case of 4M pages and RV32 (pgd is the leaf).
To fix this we can update protection bits for all of existing mm-s, the
same as ARM does, see commit 08925c2f124f
("ARM: 8464/1: Update all mm structures with section adjustments").
Fixes: 19a00869028f ("RISC-V: Protect all kernel sections including init early")

Changes for v3:
- Add WARN_ON(state != SYSTEM_FREEING_INITMEM) to fix_kernel_mem_early()
to make sure that the function used only during permission fixes.
- Add comment to fix_kernel_mem_early().
Changes for v2:
- Fix commit message format.
- Add 'Fixes' tag.
