Wouldnt it be safer to check for bit 7 only on the levels
we're sure it means large page?

Should probably get rid of this entirely (or BUG_ON), since a better
place to handle this is at fetch / direct_map as mentioned in the other
email.

But we can do that later, incrementally.

It would be better to just turn off updates to large sptes via          
update_pte path, so just nuke them and let the pagefault path
handle.
