The hpcmips kernel doesn't do that. The hpcmips loader does that.
Once the stuff is loaded into memory, the kernel takes over. Part of
that takeover is blowing away the TLB. Once the tlb has been reset,
the old WinCE mappings are gone for good.

OK. The reason that the hpcmips guys went that was was that there's a
huge number of WinCE devices, some of which you can get very cheaply,
that do not have the option of Flash at all. WinCE is in Mask
Programmable Roms.
