+ * compile time, but to set the physical address only
+ * in the boot process. We allocate these special  addresses
+ * from the end of virtual memory (0xfffff000) backwards.
+ * Also this lets us do fail-safe vmalloc(), we
+ * can guarantee that these special addresses and
+ * vmalloc()-ed addresses never overlap.
+ *
+ * these 'compile-time allocated' memory buffers are
+ * fixed-size 4k pages. (or larger if used with an increment
+ * highger than 1) use fixmap_set(idx,phys) to associate
+ * physical memory with fixmap indices.
+ *
+ * TLB entries of such buffers will not be flushed across
+ * task switches.

+ * on UP currently we will have no trace of the fixmap mechanizm,
