When CONFIG_RODATA_FULL_DEFAULT_ENABLED=y, passing "rodata=on" on the
kernel command-line (rather than "rodata=full") should turn off the
"full" behaviour, leaving writable linear aliases of read-only kernel
memory. Unfortunately, the option has no effect in this situation and
the only way to disable the "rodata=full" behaviour is to disable rodata
protection entirely by passing "rodata=off".
Fix this by parsing the "on" and "off" options in the arch code,
additionally enforcing that 'rodata_full' cannot be set without also
setting 'rodata_enabled', allowing us to simplify a couple of checks
in the process.

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 Restructured Text 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.
