>>From my personal (selfish) perspective, a call would be
counter-productive. Regarding documentation, I do have one thought that
might help, with the (very tricky) page table manipulations / phases:
diagrams (ascii or svg, perhaps). I don't know if that will help me look
at this in detail earlier, but *when* I will look at it, it will
definitely help me.

(If there are diagrams already, then I apologize for not noticing them.)

Thanks!
