DEBUG_PAGEALLOC only manages RW data. Text and RO data can still be mapped with hugepages and pinned TLB. In order to map with hugepages, also enforce a 512kB data alignment minimum. That's a trade-off between size of speed, taking into account that DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is a debug option. Anyway the alignment is still tunable. We also allow tuning of alignment for book3s to limit the complexity of the test in Kconfig that will anyway disappear in the following patches once DEBUG_PAGEALLOC is handled together with BATs.

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.
