Hooks are provided for the mach-XXX subarchitecture at the time prior to a
page being used as a page table at all levels, for PAE and non-PAE kernels.
Note that in PAE mode, multiple PDP roots may exist on the same page with
other data, so the root must be shadowed instead. This is not a performance
issue, since PAE only uses 4 top level PDPEs.
The hooks are:
SetPagePTE(ppn) - indicates that a given physical page is going to be used
as a page table.
SetPagePDE(ppn) - indicates that a given physical page is going to be used
as a page directory.
ClearPageXXX(ppn) - indicates that the physical page is now done being
used as a certain type of page.
These hooks can be used in two ways; for shadow mode, they serve as
requests to pre-allocate and deallocate shadow page tables, and for
direct page table mode, they serve as write protect/unprotect requests.
