Important thing is that we already have a highmem and many guys
include you(kmap stacking patch :))try to improve highmem problems. :)
I have exactly 0 machines in daily use that use highmem, I had to test
that kmap stuff in a 32bit qemu.

Sadly some hardware folks still think its a sane thing to do, like ARM
announcing 40bit PAE, I mean really?!

At least AMD announced a 64bit tiny-chip and hopefully Intel Atom will
soon be all 64bit too (please?!).
