This table basically is part of the DISCONTIGMEM implementation and used
lightly by SPARSEMEM. In the i386 port we have already pushd that out
into a discontigmem implementation of memory_present. That is a logical
next step in this port and I've got some of it already done. That
should sit nicely on this lot. I'll work on this one.
