I don't have a strong preference either way, but I do have some
concerns about the VMAP_KERNEL.  I really dislike the fact that it
requires different versions of virtual-to-physical translations for
kernel addresses.  No other platform does that, so it will be a source
of continual worry.  Jesse, could you describe your approach a little
more?  I assume you link the kernel with "ld -r" and have an elilo
that applies the relocations?
