Recent UEFI versions expose permission attributes for runtime services memory regions, either in the UEFI memory map or in the separate memory attributes table. This allows the kernel to map these regions with stricter permissions, rather than the RWX permissions that are used by default. So wire this up in our mapping routine.

Looks fine from an EFI perspective, but it would be nice for somebody else with ARM knowledge to ACK it.
