+/*
+ * void la57_trampoline(%rdi pml5)
+ *
+ * Entered in 4-level paging long mode on AP, hopefully returns alive in
+ * 5-level paging mode. The parameter is a pointer to a 5-level page
+ * table root. The passed 5-level page table, and the current 4-level page
+ * table, both must map the trampoline code page 1:1 physical, below 4G.
+ * The trampoline must be PIC because it is copied from kernel text into
+ * this page.
+ *
+ * The current paging level cannot be changed while paging is enabled, and
+ * paging cannot be disabled while in long mode. As consequence, code
+ * switches into the compat mode, then disables paging to descend into
+ * protected mode. There, the paging level bit CR4.LA57 can be changed,
+ * and code directly jumps back into long mode.
+ *
+ * Falling into the protected mode requires single-purpose GDT entries,
+ * which are provided by the private GDT. It is the caller's responsibility
+ * to
+ * - restore the GDT and %gsbase after the call
+ * - reset IDT back to long mode.
