I know, feels odd, but for now I think so. The host is obviously
welcome to restrict things in its stage-1, but for stage-2, this is
just 'memory' so far, the host is allowed to patch it if it wants too.

Eventually, yes, I think we should make it RO in the host stage-2, but
maybe that's for another series?

Ah no, sorry for the confusion, but 'locked' means that we already hold
the pgtable lock. That is not actually true here, but this is a special
case as only the current CPU can be messing with it at this point in
time so taking the lock would just be wasted cycles.
