- * User space process size. This is the first address outside the user range.
- * There are a few constraints that determine this:
- *
- * On Intel CPUs, if a SYSCALL instruction is at the highest canonical
- * address, then that syscall will enter the kernel with a
- * non-canonical return address, and SYSRET will explode dangerously.
- * We avoid this particular problem by preventing anything
- * from being mapped at the maximum canonical address.
- *
- * On AMD CPUs in the Ryzen family, there's a nasty bug in which the
- * CPUs malfunction if they execute code from the highest canonical page.
- * They'll speculate right off the end of the canonical space, and
- * bad things happen. This is worked around in the same way as the
- * Intel problem.
- *
- * With page table isolation enabled, we map the LDT in ... [stay tuned]
