Boot with virtual == physical to get closer to native Linux.
1) This allows us to get alot closer to booting bzImages.
2) It means we don't have to know page_offset.
3) The Guest needs to modify the boot pagetables to create the
PAGE_OFFSET mapping before jumping to C code.
4) guest_pa() walks the page tables rather than using page_offset.
5) We don't use page_offset to figure out whether to emulate: it was
always kinda quesationable, and won't work for instructions done
before remapping (bzImage unpacking in particular).
6) We still want the kernel address for tlb flushing: have the initial
hypercall give us that, too.
