Almost forgot.  Please add a comment explaning how LAM untags the address,
specifically the whole bit 63 preservation.  The logic is actually straightforward,
but the above looks way more complex than it actually is.  This?

	/*
	 * Untag the address by sign-extending the LAM bit, but NOT to bit 63.
	 * Bit 63 is retained from the raw virtual address so that untagging
	 * doesn't change a user access to a supervisor access, and vice versa.
