More importantly, I forgot to mark it as aligned on PAGE_SIZE. Oops
(er... double fault). Here's fixed patch, and this one should work.

Andrew, the crashes with intel-agp were not driver fault after
all. swsusp assumed 4MB pages, and intel-agp driver broke 4MB page
down, resulting in nasty crash.

Herbert's solution was to copy memory backwards, and avoid the crash
by luck (But thanks a lot for explaining me the problem!).

Non-PSE cpus are still not supported; but it should be easier when we
are running in pagedir with identity-mapped pages.

This solution copies page table at boot, where it is "known good",
still 4MB. Could you apply it?
