Perfect, I've just merged the two commits related to the PTE layout.
Thanks again for contributing this.

This is a SMP-enabled kernel, right? You may look for some hints about
the other CPUs on the serial console (if applicable) or the output of
kconsole (there you should be able to scroll using the keyboard) or cat
/log/kernel.

Maybe the UEFI systems need some changes for SMP boot, similar to how
ACPI systems needed a different SMP config method from the basic Multi
Processor Specification one. Not sure.

I noticed some trac messages related to your account a couple of days
ago. Unfortunately I don't know what's wrong there. Don't you receive
the e-mail with the reset password?

Cheers,
