+Virtual memory map with 4 level page tables:
+
+0000000000000000 - 00007fffffffffff (=47 bits) user space, different per mm
+hole caused by [48:63] sign extension
+ffff800000000000 - ffff80ffffffffff (=40 bits) guard hole
+ffff810000000000 - ffffc0ffffffffff (=46 bits) direct mapping of all phys. memory
+ffffc10000000000 - ffffc1ffffffffff (=40 bits) hole
+ffffc20000000000 - ffffe1ffffffffff (=45 bits) vmalloc/ioremap space
+ffffe20000000000 - ffffe2ffffffffff (=40 bits) virtual memory map (1TB)
+... unused hole ...
+ffffffff80000000 - ffffffffa0000000 (=512 MB)  kernel text mapping, from phys 0
+ffffffffa0000000 - fffffffffff00000 (=1536 MB) module mapping space
+
+The direct mapping covers all memory in the system up to the highest
+memory address (this means in some cases it can also include PCI memory
+holes).
+
+vmalloc space is lazily synchronized into the different PML4 pages of
+the processes using the page fault handler, with init_level4_pgt as
+reference.
+
+Current X86-64 implementations only support 40 bits of address space,
+but we support up to 46 bits. This expands into MBZ space in the page tables.
