That's the entry area, which is mapped into kernel _AND_ user space. Now
that's special because we switch CR3 while we are executing there.
And this one is:
0xffffffff81e00000-0xffffffff82000000 2M ro PSE GLB x pmd
and the one we switch to is:
0xffffffff81000000-0xffffffff82000000 16M ro PSE x pmd
Meelis, does the patch below fix it for you?
Thanks,
