When the kernel calls into RTAS, it switches to 32-bit mode. The
magic page was is longer accessible in that case, causing the
patched instructions in the RTAS call wrapper to crash.

This fixes it by making available a 32-bit mapping of the magic
page in that case. This mapping is flushed whenever we switch
the kernel back to 64-bit mode.

Avi, please consider merging ASAP as this is a fairly annoying
bug and the fix is reasonably obvious.
