Rename the pv_entry_t iterator from pv_list to pv_next.
Besides being more correct technically (as the name seems to suggest
this is a list while it is an iterator), it will also be needed by
vm_radix work to avoid a nameclash on macro expansions.

It unfortunately steals a fair chunk of RAM at startup even if it's not
actively used, which prevents FreeBSD VMs of 128MB from successfully
booting and running.
When CPU becomes idle, cpu_idleclock() calculates time to the next timer
event in order to reprogram hw timer. Return that time in sbintime_t to
the caller and pass it to acpi_cpu_idle(), where it can be used as one
more factor (quite precise) to extimate furter sleep time and choose
optimal sleep state. This is a preparatory change for further callout
improvements will be committed in the next days.
The commmit is not targeted for MFC.
VM_OBJECT_LOCKED() macro is only used to implement a custom version
of lock assertions right now (which likely spread out thanks to
copy and paste).
Remove it and implement actual assertions.

machine/signal.h and machine/ucontext.h into common x86 includes,
copying from amd64 and merging with i386.
Kernel-only compat definitions are kept in the i386/include/sigframe.h
and i386/include/signal.h, to reduce amd64 kernel namespace pollution.
The amd64 compat uses its own definitions so far.
The _MACHINE_ELF_WANT_32BIT definition is to allow the
sys/boot/userboot/userboot/elf32_freebsd.c to use i386 ELF definitions
on the amd64 compile host. The same hack could be usefully abused by
other code too.
Prior to this change pinning was implemented via an ioctl (VM_SET_PINNING)
that called 'sched_bind()' on behalf of the user thread.
The ULE implementation of 'sched_bind()' bumps up 'td_pinned' which in turn
runs afoul of the assertion '(td_pinned == 0)' in userret().
Using the cpuset affinity to implement pinning of the vcpu threads works with
both 4BSD and ULE schedulers and has the happy side-effect of getting rid
of a bunch of code in vmm.ko.

This eliminates the need to recompile the kernel when the default value
of NKPT is not big enough - for e.g. when loading large kernel modules
or memory disk images from the loader.
If NKPT is defined in the kernel configuration file then it overrides the
dynamic calculation.

If the MSI-table is located in the middle of a BAR then we will split the
BAR into two and create two mappings - one before the table and one after
the table - leaving a hole in place of the table so accesses to it can be
trapped and emulated.

The maximum length of an environment variable puts a limitation on the
number of passthru devices that can be specified via a single variable.
The workaround is to allow user to specify passthru devices via multiple

This is required because the VT-x initialization calls smp_rendezvous()

With this change we can preload vmm.ko from the loader.

CPUs exhibit bad behavior if this is done (Intel Errata AAJ3, hangs on
Pentium-M, and trashing of the local APIC registers on a VIA C7). The
local APIC is implicitly mapped UC already via MTRRs, so the clflush isn't
necessary anyway.

During the early days of bhyve it did not support instruction emulation
which necessitated the use of x2apic to access the local apic. This is no
longer the case and the dependency on x2apic has gone away.
The x2apic patches can be considered independently of bhyve and will be
merged into head via projects/x2apic.

this feature to execute the AP bootstrap code.
Get rid of the hack that allowed bhyve to support SMP guests on processors
that do not have the "unrestricted guest" capability. This hack was entirely
FreeBSD-specific and would not work with any other guest OS.
Instead, limit the number of vcpus to 1 when executing on processors without
"unrestricted guest" capability.
