Linux Operating System Source Code: IBM Patches

Some crazy person with PAE thinks that they need more user virtual
space,  This patch allows PAGE_OFFSET to be in much more arbitrary
places, with PAE on.  I described the first bit of the patch here:
http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=104197008817507&w=2

This patch also allows us to simulate the conditions that occur when
we have large amounts of physical RAM (like having pte chains and
mem_map consuting all of ZONE_NORMAL) with much lower actual amounts
of RAM.

This part adds the userspace page tables component, so that we can
_actually_ run userspace programs.  Thanks to Bill Irwin for showing
me how to do the pgd_alloc() in a relatively sane way.

The second patch I've attached will take you from the normal 3:1
split, to a 7:1 split.  I've also booted on a machine with PAE on, 4GB
of physical RAM, and a 15:1 split (PAGE_OFFSET == 0xF0000000).

This is from the 15:1 split:
3615MB HIGHMEM available.
128MB LOWMEM available.
