The commit fcf8dda8cc ("arm64: pageattr: Explicitly bail out when changing
permissions for vmalloc_huge mappings") made permission update for
partial range more robust. But the linear mapping permission update
still assumes update the whole range by iterating from the first page
all the way to the last page of the area.
Make it more robust by updating the linear mapping permission from the
page mapped by start address, and update the number of numpages.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
