arm64/mm: move runtime pgds to rodata
Now that deliberate writes to swapper_pg_dir are made via the fixmap, we can defend against errant writes by moving it into the rodata section. Since tramp_pg_dir and reserved_ttbr0 must be at a fixed offset from swapper_pg_dir, and are not modified at runtime, these are also moved into the rodata section. Likewise, idmap_pg_dir is not modified at runtime, and is moved into rodata.
