This table basically is part of the DISCONTIGMEM implementation and used
lightly by SPARSEMEM.  In the i386 port we have already pushd that out
into a discontigmem implementation of memory_present.  That is a logical
next step in this port and I've got some of it already done.  That
should sit nicely on this lot.  I'll work on this one.
