This gist of the series is: 1. Fix the definition of PTE_MASK so that its equally applicable in all pagetable modes 2. Use it consistently I haven't tried to address the *_bad() stuff, other than to convert pmd_bad_* to use PTE_MASK. I've compile tested it a bit and run it on 32-bit PAE (native and Xen), but I haven't tested it with >4G memory, non-PAE or 64-bit. In other words, it needs some time in Ingo's torture machine. J
