For as much as this has been discussed in the past,
I don't know why the 8xx doesn't check KERNEL_BASE
and work properly with the options.  There is no reason
this can't work.  The history is I wrote the tlb handlers
to test the MS bit due to a hardcoded address, not that
the address is hardcoded because I wanted to just
test a bit.  Unlike PReP, there is no reason to
disallow modification, if this test was changed.

Thanks.
