This looks good to me. One possible suggsetion below, but either way:

Given that we're probably only going to use this during one-off setup,
maybe it's worth something like:

#define IN_KERNEL_IMAGE(p) ({						\
	unsigned long __p = (unsigned long)p;				\
	KIMAGE_VADDR <= __p && __p < _end;				\
})

#define pte_offset_kimg(dir,addr) ({					\
	BUG_ON(!IN_KERNEL_IMAGE(dir));					\
	((pte_t *)__phys_to_kimg(pte_offset_phys((dir), (addr))));	\
})

That might be overkill, though, given all it does is turn one runtime
failure into another runtime failure.
