Major diffrences between ATARITT (or FALCON) and BOOT
which might affect pmap changes are:
- kernel size (due to many MI options)
- options SERCONSOLE
- options RELOC_KERNEL
- options MSGBUFSIZE

I guess the last two items require some special handling
during pmap initialization. (conversion between PA and VA etc.)
