These patches are based on work from a team at Graz University of Technology posted here: https://github.com/IAIK/KAISER The KAISER approach keeps two copies of the page tables: one for running in the kernel and one for running userspace. But, there are a few structures that are needed for switching in and out of the kernel and a good subset of *those* are per-cpu data. This patch creates a new kind of per-cpu data that is mapped and can be used no matter which copy of the page tables we are using. Thanks to Hugh Dickins for cleanups to this code.
