I have to wonder if it's worth the effort. The primary problem I see is that this new ABI requires a 64bit kernel since faults through the upper 2G will go through the XTLB miss exception vector.
Yes, that is correct. It is a 64-bit ABI, and like the existing n32 ABI requires a 64-bit kernel.
N32 doesn't require a LP64 kernel, just a 64-bit register aware kernel. Your N32-big does require a LP64 kernel.
