Thanks for your help with testing this patch-set, but I recommend to
wait for the next version, as review already found a couple of bugs that
might crash your system. For example there are NMI cases that might
crash your machine because the NMI happens in kernel mode before the cr3
switch. VM86 mode is also definitly broken.

I am about to fix that and will send a new version, if all goes well, at
some point next week.


Thanks,

Joerg
