For protected memory read only isn't supported by the RMM. While it may be possible to support read only for unprotected memory, this isn't supported at the present time. Note that this does mean that ROM (or flash) data cannot be emulated correctly by the VMM as the stage 2 mappings are either always read/write or are trapped as MMIO (so don't support operations where the syndrome information doesn't allow emulation, e.g. load/store pair). This restriction can be lifted in the future by allowing the unprotected stage 2 mappings to be made read only.
