But that will split the large pages for the direct mapping, costing you
every time there is TLB pressure. You can probably do the math, with
enough uptime and a reasonable error rate aand this patch there might be
not even be 2MB pages left at some point. Cheaper to just ignore them,
since they shouldn't cause any other problems.
