those of some non-architectural core events. This is not a problem in the
general case as long as there's an 1:1 mapping between the two, but there
are few exceptions. For example, 3CH_01H on Nehalem/Westmere represents
both unhalted-reference-cycles and CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P.
CPU_CLK_UNHALTED.REF_P on the aforementioned architectures does not measure
reference (i.e. bus) but TSC, so there's the need to disambiguate.
In order to avoid the namespace collision rename all the architectural
events in a way they cannot be ambigous and refactor the architectural
events handling function to reflect this change.
While here, per Jim Harris request, rename
iap_architectural_event_is_unsupported() to iap_event_is_architectural().

future further optimizations where the vm_object lock will be held
in read mode most of the time the page cache resident pool of pages
are accessed for reading purposes.
The change is mostly mechanical but few notes are reported:
* The KPI changes as follow:
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_TRYLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_TRYWLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() -> VM_OBJECT_WUNLOCK()
- VM_OBJECT_LOCK_ASSERT(MA_OWNED) -> VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_WLOCKED()
(in order to avoid visibility of implementation details)
- The read-mode operations are added:
VM_OBJECT_RLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_TRYRLOCK(), VM_OBJECT_RUNLOCK(),
VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_RLOCKED(), VM_OBJECT_ASSERT_LOCKED()
* The vm/vm_pager.h namespace pollution avoidance (forcing requiring
sys/mutex.h in consumers directly to cater its inlining functions
using VM_OBJECT_LOCK()) imposes that all the vm/vm_pager.h
consumers now must include also sys/rwlock.h.
* zfs requires a quite convoluted fix to include FreeBSD rwlocks into
the compat layer because the name clash between FreeBSD and solaris
versions must be avoided.
At this purpose zfs redefines the vm_object locking functions
directly, isolating the FreeBSD components in specific compat stubs.
The KPI results heavilly broken by this commit. Thirdy part ports must
be updated accordingly (I can think off-hand of VirtualBox, for example).

New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).
Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
