Oza, 

Can you please append your actual patch as Rabin has done?  The only
thing that I have from you is this pseudo-code description:

> FILL_PGD(PAGEBASE(pgd), KVADDR, PGDIR_SIZE());
> pgd_pte = ULONG(machdep->pgd + PGDIR_OFFSET(page_dir));

Then Mika can decide on how to proceed with the two patches.
