It's a virtual address so it depends on the value of CONFIG_KERNEL_START
as to whether this is a user program address or not.

Shouldn't it be PAGE_OFFSET ? I mean, CONFIG_KERNEL_START should work
on powerpc, but still...

mel@arnold:~/git/linux-2.6$ grep PAGE_OFFSET include/asm-ppc/page.h
#define PAGE_OFFSET     CONFIG_KERNEL_START

On powerpc sure.... but it's still dodgy I think.
