When allocating unmapped pages, take advantage of the direct map on
AMD64 to get the virtual address corresponding to a page. Else all
pages allocated must be mapped because sometimes the virtual address
of a page is requested.
Move all page allocation and deallocation code into an own C-file.
Add support for GFP_DMA32, GFP_KERNEL, GFP_ATOMIC and __GFP_ZERO
allocation flags.
Make a clear separation between mapped and unmapped allocations.

The i915kms driver in Linux 4.9 reimplement parts of the scatter list
functions with regards to performance. In other words there is not so
much room for changing structure layouts and functionality if the
i915kms should be built AS-IS. This patch aligns the scatter list
support to what is expected by the i915kms driver. Remove some
comments not needed while at it.

1) Add better spinlock debug names when WITNESS_ALL is defined.
2) Make sure that the calling thread gets bound to the current CPU
while a spinlock is locked. Some Linux kernel code depends on that the
CPU ID doesn't change while a spinlock is locked.
3) Add support for using LinuxKPI spinlocks during a panic().

Tasklets are implemented using a taskqueue and a small statemachine on
top. The additional statemachine is required to ensure all LinuxKPI
tasklets get serialized. FreeBSD taskqueues do not guarantee
serialisation of its tasks, except when there is only one worker
thread configured.

A set of helper functions have been added to manage the life of the
LinuxKPI task struct. When an external system call or task is invoked,
a check is made to create the task struct by demand. A thread
destructor callback is registered to free the task struct when a
thread exits to avoid memory leaks.
This change lays the ground for emulating the Linux kernel more
closely which is a dependency by the code using the LinuxKPI APIs.
Add new dedicated td_lkpi_task field has been added to struct thread
instead of abusing td_retval[1].
Fix some header file inclusions to make LINT kernel build properly
after this change.
Bump the __FreeBSD_version to force a rebuild of all kernel modules.

getdents64() with wrapper over kern_getdirentries().
The patch was originally written by emaste@ and then adapted by trasz@
and me.
Note:
1. I divided linux_getdents() and linux_readdir() as in case when the
getdents() called with count = 1 (readdir() case) it can overwrite
user stack (by writing to user buffer pointer more than 1 byte).
2. Linux returns EINVAL in case when user supplied buffer is not enough
to contain fetched dirent.
3. Linux returns ENOTDIR in case when fd points to not a directory.

Rename kern_vm_* functions to kern_*. Move the prototypes to
syscallsubr.h. Also change Mach VM types to uintptr_t/size_t as
needed, to avoid headers pollution.

Members of the syscall argument structures are padded to a word size. So,
