Whoopsie... In arch/i386/head.S please move the label chkdevid to just _above_ the ifdef (you'll see if you look at it).
Incidentally, if anyone is interested Larry Wall's lmbench suggests that use of VSPM reduces latency and increases bandwidth significantly on the pipe, UDP and TCP tests. It seems to save a lot when bouncing through kernel space.
