We may get by without the PROT_WRITE. The memory is initialized beforehand so
it should not be required to write to it. On the other hand I don't know what
some BIOSes do, so I tried to restore the original behavior as much as
possible.
If we can sufficiently test it without PROT_WRITE to be confident we can remove
it.
