Me likee.

This looks much nicer. The hack turned into something that looks quite
ddesigned.

Ingo, I'd like you to comment on all the PAE issues just in case, but I
personally don't have any real issues any more. Small nit: I dislike the
"__HAVE_ARCH_xxx" approach, and considering that most architectures will
probably want to do something specific anyway I wonder if we should get
rid of that and just make architectures have their own code.

Thanks,

Linus
