So can we get rid of this from head_64.S as well? Or is that a different
debugger?

        /*
         * At offset 0x28 and 0x30 are offsets to the mschunks_map
         * array (used by the iSeries LPAR debugger to do translation
         * between physical addresses and absolute addresses) and
         * to the pidhash table (also used by the debugger)
         */
        .llong mschunks_map-KERNELBASE
        .llong 0        /* pidhash-KERNELBASE SFRXXX */

cheers
