Yes, and we should add a symbol for the bottom of the 1:1 area as well (to disambiguate it from TASK_SIZE).

Well, that's already called "PAGE_OFFSET". 64-bit needs to be careful about the distinction anyway, because there's the sign extension hole between user and kernel space. Xen squeezes itself in just above the hole, so I moved PAGE_OFFSET up accordingly.

Ah, that explains that strange offset. I was wondering about that.
