Why? 
  

I got complaints about section attribute mismatches without it.

Then perhaps ... "aw" is meant?

Why can they be 0 here anyways?

Normally they are all considered undefined when not present
  

Not sure.

This should probably get sync-ed up with the page table handling changes
submitted to xen-devel yesterday. Using zero/non-zero tests in contexts
like this was always broken; should check for _PAGE_PRESENT.
