Subject: [RFC 2/7] init: add set_ro_mostly_after_init_rw/ro function

 Add set_ro_mostly_after_init_rw/ro pair to modify memory attributes for
memory marked as `ro_mostly_after_init`.

 I am doubtful that this is the right place where these functions reside and
these functions are suitable for all architectures for memory attributes
modification. Please comment.
