5244eac968 Complete rework of the PowerPC pmap and a number of other bits in the early
boot sequence.

The new pmap.c is based on NetBSD's newer pmap.c (for the mpc6xx processors)
which is 70% faster than the older code that the original pmap.c was based
on.  It has also been based on the framework established by jake's initial
sparc64 pmap.c.

There is no change to how far the kernel gets (it makes it to the mountroot
prompt in psim) but the new pmap code is a lot cleaner.

Obtained from:	NetBSD (pmap code)

d27f1d4c12 This commit (along with one pending in sys/dev/ofw and one in sys/conf) give
us our first minimal glimpse of PowerPC support.

With this code we can get to the "mountroot>" prompt on my Apple iMac.  We
can't get any further due to lack of clock and interrupt handling, among other
things.  This does however mean that pmap and VM are initialising.

We're fairly dependant on OpenFirmware at this point, but I hope to add
support for other classes of firmware at a later stage.
