powerpc/mm/radix: Fix small page at boundary when splitting

Browse source

When we have CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled, we want to split the
linear mapping at the text/data boundary so we can map the kernel
text read only.

Currently we always use a small page at the text/data boundary, even
when that's not necessary:

  Mapped 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000000e00000 with 2.00 MiB pages
  Mapped 0x0000000000e00000-0x0000000001000000 with 64.0 KiB pages
  Mapped 0x0000000001000000-0x0000000040000000 with 2.00 MiB pages

This is because the check that the mapping crosses the __init_begin
boundary is too strict, it also returns true when we map exactly up to
the boundary.

So fix it to check that the mapping would actually map past
__init_begin, and with that we see:

  Mapped 0x0000000000000000-0x0000000040000000 with 2.00 MiB pages
  Mapped 0x0000000040000000-0x0000000100000000 with 1.00 GiB pages
