[PATCH v8 1/2] riscv: Introduce set_kernel_memory helper

From: Alexandre Ghiti
Date: Thu Jun 24 2021 - 08:01:52 EST


This helper should be used for setting permissions to the kernel
mapping as it takes pointers as arguments and then avoids explicit cast
to unsigned long needed for the set_memory_* API.
