Fortunately, there is a third way. We are writing an embedded kernel, and therefore the execution
environment is way more static and deterministic as compared to a general-purpose kernel that can be
deployed on a wide variety of targets. Specifically, for the Raspberrypi, we exactly know the **load
address** of the kernel in advance, and we know about the capabilites of the `MMU`. So there is
address** of the kernel in advance, and we know about the capabilities of the `MMU`. So there is
nothing stopping us from precomputing the kernel's translation tables ahead of time.
A disadvantage of this approach is an increased binary size, but this is not a deal breaker in our
