Re: __get_free_pages() internal

["Peter Teoh" <htmldeveloper@xxxxxxxxx>]

Just found it for myself.   The answer to the location of the
pagetable is indicated by the swapper_pg_dir variable.

The pagetable starts at swapper_pg_dir, and it is constructed before
the paging is enabled, (in paging_init())

void __init paging_init(void)
{
        pagetable_init();
        load_cr3(swapper_pg_dir);
        __flush_tlb_all();
        kmap_init();
}

Thanks.
