Just remember we waited over 5 years for this to happen: the point of these
is that Christoph showed it's still useful.

(And I really like the idea of allocing congruent areas rather than remapping
if someone can show that it's semi-reliable. Good luck!)

I really don't like the idea of making percpu memory (physically) move around. It would break Xen's usage of it for a start... Virtual remapping would be OK.
