I'm pretty sure I tested it and it worked.

But I didn't actually change anything WRT the spider offset anyway, we
still add it to it_offset just like we used to, it's just we don't put
it in the window and then pull it out again.

The only thing that's changed is we now use offset (aka. base) in the
tce routines in addition to pte_offset.

cheers
