If yes, we should be able to fix the tables in the on-chip RAM.
I think my case is different because I use two tables. The final table is equivalent to those everyone else is using. The early table is different with non 1:1 mapping. This feature shouldn't be too hard to add. Now it comes the third part. The early table is so early, we don't have gd setup yet, or printf. We need to change the table handling to accept an argument, instead of using gd for table pointer.
