Could it be that we don't know the memory layout that the ARC bios depends
on, and when we go and setup our memory space with TLB entries we are
blowing away the arc environment.

Does the docs say anything about the ARC memory environment, and is that
standard across the implementations?

...actually, if you look at arc/arcbios.c, we seem to have bioscons
routines.  Wonder why they're not used?
