On XIP kernel, the name "va_kernel_pa_offset" is misleading: unlike
"normal" kernel, it is not the virtual-physical address offset of kernel
mapping, it is the offset of kernel mapping's first virtual address to
first physical address in DRAM, which is not meaningful because the
kernel's first physical address is not in DRAM.

For XIP kernel, there are 2 different offsets because the read-only part of
the kernel resides in ROM while the rest is in RAM. The offset to ROM is in
kernel_map.va_kernel_xip_pa_offset, while the offset to RAM is not stored
anywhere: it is calculated on-the-fly.

Remove this confusing "va_kernel_pa_offset" and add
"va_kernel_data_pa_offset" as its replacement. This new variable is the
offset of virtual mapping of the kernel's data portion to the corresponding
physical addresses.

I would call that new field va_kernel_xip_data_pa_offset so that we know at first sight it only applies to XIP_KERNEL (and maybe rename va_kernel_xip_pa_offset into va_kernel_xip_text_pa_offset?).

I think you missed the occurence of va_kernel_pa_offset() in arch/riscv/kernel/vmcore_info.c.

Although some nits above, you can add:
