By comparing the swapper_pg_dir with k54 and previous versions,we find
that the linear mappings within which the addr is out of kernel text section
will use the smallest pte. It should arise for the sake of rodata_full, which
set all memblock use NO_CONT_MAPPINGS.

OK so your intent seems to be to use block mappings for the linear
alias of the kernel text and rodata, right?
What does that achieve? It should make no difference in TLB pressure,
as the linear alias is rarely referenced (we only kept it around for
hibernate). So I guess we save a handful of pages for page tables.

Please don't use empty statements like this, and I'm not sure we even
need this check: I wouldn't expect debug_pagealloc or KFENCE to ever
require page granular mappings of this region either.
Also, please add a comment to explain what the condition is meant to
check (i..e, that the PMD entry covers a part of the linear alias of
the kernel image, and so there is no need to map it down to pages or
to avoid contiguous mappings)

Thanks for the quick response and sorry for causing confusion with my
poor comments. What I want to do is on the contrary, that is using
block mapping on the addr OUT OF the kernel text, which could be
affected by setting rodata_full(can_set_direct_map) so far.
