How about simply reserving all of it for the base kernel and using soft

point.

It is only used for PAE kernels in set_64bit.
The problem is that due to a old Windows bug many CPUs need magic MSRs
to enable CMPXCHG64, and we can't do that nicely early enough before
it is potentially used.
But since we only need it in PAE kernels so only force the checking
for CMPXCHG65 wi
Previously a program could switch to a compat mode segment and then
execute SYSCALL and it would jump to an uninitialized MSR and crash
the kernel.
Instead supply a dummy target for this case.

The low level code could just register its own shutdown handler.
No need to go through dma_ops I think.
