I'll be quiet for the next few days as I try to discover why
sparc64 now explodes after the past week of changes.  I'm
heavily suspecting the 4-level page table stuff.  wli kept
saying that he was having trouble getting his sparc boxes
working with the -mm tree over the past month and that's about
how long the 4-level page table stuff has been in there.

What's odd is that Andi's original 4-level page table patch
he gave to me worked just fine on sparc64, but it's been
changed a lot.
