yes, every process running will have a different CR3 value....easily seen when u printk() the value from different kernel module....and the kernel module is running in the same process context as the "insmod" that started the kernel module....so u can see the process name is "insmod" if u printk() the value of the process name. ie, user + kernel mode all shared the same CR3 value, but different process will have different value.
