At the moment, set_fixmap may replace a valid entry without following

Rather than dealing with Break-Before-Make in set_fixmap, every call to
set_fixmap is paired with a call to clear_fixmap.

It is not every call to set_fixmap: it is every call to
set_fixmap(FIXMAP_MISC, ...

I don't understand this request... The title explicit mention "copy_from_paddr" and fixmap is only called with FIXMAP_MISC.

So why should I need to specify the argument?


Please clarify, then you can add
