The change of the access rights for an address range in the kernel
address space is currently done with a loop of IPTE + a store of the
modified PTE. Between the IPTE and the store the PTE will be invalid,
this intermediate state can cause problems with concurrent accesses.
Consider a change of a kernel area from read-write to read-only, a
concurrent reader of that area should be fine but with the invalid
PTE it might get an unexpected exception.
Remove the IPTEs for each PTE and do a global flush after all PTEs
have been modified.
