 *
 * Virtual offset memory model
 *
 * No currently supported machine provides a full 64 bits of physical
 * address space.  When we have ownership of the page tables (or
 * segmentation mechanism), we can therefore use the following model:
 *
 *   - For 32-bit builds: set up a circular map so that all 32-bit
 *     virtual addresses are at a fixed offset from the 32-bit
 *     physical addresses.
 *
 *   - For 64-bit builds: identity-map the required portion of the
 *     physical address space, place iPXE within the 32-bit physical
 *     address space, map iPXE using virtual addresses in the top part
 *     of the negative (kernel) address space, and optionally map the
 *     32-bit physical address space with attributes suitable for
 *     coherent DMA accesses.
 *
 * In both cases, we can define "virt_offset" as "the value to be
 * added to an address within iPXE's own image in order to obtain its
 * physical address".  With this definition:
 *
 *   - For 32-bit builds: conversion between physical and virtual
 *     addresses is a straightforward addition or subtraction of
 *     virt_offset, since the whole 32-bit address space is circular.
 *
 *   - For 64-bit builds: conversion from any valid physical address
 *     is a no-op (since all physical addresses are identity-mapped),
 *     and conversion from a virtual address to a physical address
 *     requires an addition of virt_offset if and only if the virtual
 *     address lies in the high negative portion of the address space
 *     (i.e. has the MSB set, but has the MSB clear after adding
 *     virt_offset).
 *
 * For x86_64-pcbios, we identity-map the low 4GB of address space
 * since the only accesses required above 4GB are for MMIO (typically
 * PCI devices with large memory BARs).
 *
 * For riscv64-sbi, we identity-map as much of the physical address
 * space as can be mapped by the paging model (Sv39, Sv48, or Sv57)
 * and create a coherent DMA mapping of the low 4GB.
