Agreed, that's where i said we can use the same assumptions as the bootstrap processor. We can load with the same CR3 but point EIP to the new entry point...

I agree. The crate provides entry point for 16 bit bootstrapping, not just boot loader logic which i wanted to reuse for SMP rather than creating another setup which does...
