Currently, for ARM kernels with CONFIG_ARM_LPAE and CONFIG_STRICT_KERNEL_RWX enabled, the 2MiB pages mapping the kernel code and rodata are writable. They are marked read-only in a software bit (L_PMD_SECT_RDONLY) but the hardware read-only bit is not set (PMD_SECT_AP2).
For user mappings, the logic that propagates the software bit to the hardware bit is in set_pmd_at(); but for the kernel, section_update() writes the PMDs directly, skipping this logic.
The fix is to set PMD_SECT_AP2 for read-only sections in section_update(), at the same time as L_PMD_SECT_RDONLY.
