Hello all. In an effort to understand how the page tables are laid out
across various architectures I put together some diagrams. I have
posted them on the linux-mm wiki: http://linux-mm.org/PageTableStructure
and I hope they will be useful to others.
Just to make sure I am not spreading misinformation, could a few of you
experts take a quick look at the three diagrams I've got finished so far
and point out any errors I have made? Thanks.

Nice. Didn't spot any innaccuracies.
