I currently don't have anything mapped other than the trampoline page, so
I haven't had to do per-cpu stuff (yet). This will interfere with perf
tracing using SPE, but if that's the only thing that needs it then it's
a hard sell, I think.

I really can't see anything. My changes are broadly divided into:
* Page table setup
* Exception entry/exit via trampoline
* User access (e.g. get_user)
* TLB invalidation
* Context switch (backend of switch_mm)
which is all deeply arch-specific.
