I do not think that this complexity is justified. As I have stated on
numerous occasions already, I would prefer that we leave the crashkernel
mapped when rodata is not "full". That fixes your performance issue and
matches what we do for module code, so I do not see a security argument
against it.

I do not plan to merge this patch as-is.

Thanks,

Will
