with pmaps. When the context numbers wrap around we flush all user mappings
from the tlb. This makes use of the array indexed by cpuid to allow a pmap
to have a different context number on a different cpu. If the context numbers
are then divided evenly among cpus such that none are shared, we can avoid
sending tlb shootdown ipis in an smp system for non-shared pmaps. This also
removes a limit of 8192 processes (pmaps) that could be active at any given
time due to running out of tlb contexts.

device drivers for bus system with other endinesses than the CPU (using
interfaces compatible to NetBSD):
- bwap16() and bswap32(). These have optimized implementations on some
architectures; for those that don't, there exist generic implementations.
- macros to convert from a certain byte order to host byte order and vice
versa, using a naming scheme like le16toh(), htole16().
These are implemented using the bswap functions.
- stream bus space access functions, which do not perform a byte order
conversion (while the normal access functions would if the bus endianess
differs from the CPU endianess).
htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl() are implemented using the new
functions above for kernel usage. None of the above interfaces is currently
exported to user land.
Make use of the new functions in a few places where local implementations
of the same functionality existed.

in system time for processes with a relatively large working set. The size
of the tsb directly affects the rss size that a user process can keep mapped.

window to the user stack while in a nested kernel trap. We do this for
entry to the kernel from user mode, but if we get an interrupt in kernel
mode while there are still user windows in the cpu, and we attempt to spill
to the user stack, we may take too many nested traps and overflow the trap
stack, causing a red state exception. This is needed by upcoming changes
to allow the user tsb to not be locked in the tlb.

virtual page number in a much more convenient way; all in one piece. This
greatly simplifies the comparison for a matching tte, and allows the fault
handlers to be much simpler due to not having to load wierd masks.
Rewrite the tlb fault handlers to account for the new format. These are also
written to allow faults on the user tsb inside of the fault handlers; the
kernel fault handler must be aware of this and not clobber the other's
registers. The faults do not yet occur due to other support that is needed
(and still under my desk).
