+ /* We are in the MMU globals, %g7 contains the physical
+ * address of current->mm->pgd at all times. %g2 is
+ * also preloaded with the mask 0x1ff8 to make things
+ * even quicker.
+ *
+ * Many subtle things are done here. The high bits of
+ * the virtual address missed are most easily obtained
+ * from the tag target (it is at address zero in ASI_IMMU
+ * so no address formation is necessary to get at this).
+ * This is used to compute the pgd and pmd table offsets.
+ *
+ * Even more clever is that physical page zero is always
+ * a page full of zeroes. This means we can just follow
+ * through with all the page table traversals even if nothing
+ * is mapped because we'll just do loads from page zero
+ * and get yet another zero. We only need to do the check
+ * for the valid bit being set in the final pte we obtain.
+ *
+ * Furthermore, we set the TSB base register to the address
+ * zero, and we use the 8KB tsb ptr to calculate the pte
+ * offset. Again it is at address zero in ASI_IMMU_TSB_8KB_PTR
+ * so no address formation is necessary, saves more instructions.
+ *
+ * We use physical address accesses to get at the page
+ * tables, and this is for two reasons. This makes it
+ * impossible to take a fault while we are servicing the
+ * miss. Also this physical bypass access only allocates
+ * in the E-cache, and thus we prevent D-cache pollution
+ * from the miss handlers probing the page tables.
