Yes, it causes the problem, which causes the boot to fail.

Yes, it's the solution that I think at first. But I didn't find any
problem with 0x7ffff000 ~ 0x80000000, and then I removed this gap to
unify it with Sv39 and Sv48.

At first, I wanted to put a invalid page between the user & kernel
space, but it seems useless.
