I still do not understand this fully.  What exactly is this "memory
hole" and why is it fatal?  As far as I can remember, there are always
some holes in the adress map, so why is this special?

Apart from that, I think most of these answers should go into the commit
message to understand what is happening.

Thanks in advance
