It varies by arch, but we have flexibility on arm64 because there is a
dedicated pmd which stays around forever. So, you see the FIX_EARLYCON
above is a "permanent" mapping which isn't really an early_ioremap
mapping. The earlyprintk code uses set_fixmap_io. I suppose this could
have been broken up into two patches, one fixmap, and one early_ioremap.
To answer your concern, the earlyprintk mapping doesn't go away. The
early_ioremap mappings should be temporary and there's a checker for
that which is run at late_initcall time.

Yes. I had it out in an earlier local patch, but it snuck back in.

Probably. I'll look into it.
