d) preload some SLB entries at very early boot to cover
    the first 4GB or so.

d) sounds nice and simple, but will it work?
Nah, best to limit everything at boot to SLB 0. Thing is, 4G is not
enough, you may have more RAM and have allocations from the top.
Yeah fair enough.  You could of course preload the stuff at
the top then, but that could quickly become a nasty hack, too.
