[Qi] LW4over6 is a solution targeting at the per-user stateful/binding
scenario, pure and clear.
MAP is originally targeting at pure stateless/alogrithmic address
mapping scenario, and then comes
to this 1:1 mode due to the theoretical corner case of EA-bits=0,
according to you guys.
While I believe the main targets are differnt and paralled
(actually two out of three in 4-over-6 case,
with the 3rd one per-session stateful), I don't think merging is the
proper way to proceed.

Thanks,
Qi
