When in PAE mode we require that the user kernel divide to be
on a 1G boundary.  The 2G/2G split does not have that property
so require !X86_PAE

Hum... We lose a usefull 2G/2G split. Should'nt we use a patch to change PAGE_OFFSET to 0x8000000 instead of 0x78000000 and keep 2G/2G split ?

Maybe the following patch is better ?

[PATCH] i386 : Adjust CONFIG_PAGE_OFFSET in case of 2G/2G split and X86_PAE

When in PAE mode we require that the user kernel divide to be
on a 1G boundary. We must therefore make sure PAGE_OFFSET is correctlty defined in the 2G/2G split and PAE mode.
