Allthough kernel text is always mapped with BATs, we still have inittext mapped with pages, so TLB miss handling is required when CONFIG_DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or CONFIG_KFENCE is set. The final solution should be to set a BAT that also maps inittext but that BAT then needs to be cleared at end of init, and it will require more changes to be able to do it properly. As DEBUG_PAGEALLOC or KFENCE are debugging, performance is not a big deal so let's fix it simply for now to enable easy stable application.

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.
