Probably not.. I think I can define a pgprot_to_large() globally, pointing
that to pgprot_4k_2_large() on x86 and make the fallback to be noop. And
if there's a new version I'll guarantee to run over my cross compilers.
Any comments on the idea itself? Do we have a problem, or maybe I
overlooked something?
Thanks,
