[PATCH] ia64: put kernel into virtually mapped area
This patch moves the kernel text and data into region 5 (0xa00...) by using a translation register to pin the entire area (i.e., no TLB faults). The 1st-order goal is to be able to boot a kernel even when there is no usable memory in the 64-128MB range. It is also a step towards enabling text-replication on NUMA.
