The bug is in patch 2, mmu_mapin_ram() should return base instead of 
returning 0 when __map_without_bats is set.

Argh ! I have to squash the patch bringing the new functions with the 
one using them (patch 12). The result is a big messy patch which is more 
difficult to review but that's life.

Do you have modules ? If so, can you try without ?
