Yep. It was a quick hack to get a system with 1GByte of memory
working. It works fine with all other memory configurations as well.
I don't see any reason anymore (once Matt Porter dumps all of the
PReP stuff :-) that we shouldn't be able to move all kernel base
addresses to 0x80000000 or to allow 3 G user spaces. On PowerPC,
we are simply tossing away 1G of address space that should be
utilized to make our life easier.
