to VPO_UNMANAGED (and also making the flag protected by the vm object
lock, instead of vm page queue lock).
- Mark the fake pages with both PG_FICTITIOUS (as it is now) and
VPO_UNMANAGED. As a consequence, pmap code now can use use just
VPO_UNMANAGED to decide whether the page is unmanaged.

o Fix awkward use of braces in combination with mis-indentation.
A mistake, that happened to yield the right behaviour?

Juniper's loader is that Juniper's loader maps all of the kernel and
preloaded modules at the right virtual address before jumping into the
kernel. FreeBSD's loader simply maps 16MB using the physical address
and expects the kernel to jump through hoops to relocate itself to
it's virtual address. The problem with the FreeBSD loader's approach is
that it typically maps too much or too little. There's no harm if it's
too much (other than wasting space), but if it's too little then the
kernel will simply not boot, because the first thing the kernel needs
is the bootinfo structure, which is never mapped in that case. The page
fault that early is fatal.
The changes constitute:
1. Do not remap the kernel in locore.S. We're mapped where we need to
be so we can pretty much call into C code after setting up the
stack.
2. With kernload and kernload_ap not set in locore.S, we need to set
them in pmap.c: kernload gets defined when we preserve the TLB1.
Here we also determine the size of the kernel mapped. kernload_ap
is set first thing in the pmap_bootstrap() method.
3. Fix tlb1_map_region() and its use to properly externd the mapped
kernel size to include low-level data structures.

This patch is going to help in cases like mips flavours where you
want a more granular support on MAXCPU.

- For amd64/i386 remove the storage of intr* stuff from assembly files.
This area can be widely improved by applying the same to other
architectures and likely finding an unified approach among them and
move the whole code to be MI. More work in this area is expected to
happen fairly soon.

instead of a PCPU field for curthread. This averts a race on SMP systems
with a high interrupt rate where the thread looking up the value of
curthread could be preempted and migrated between obtaining the PCPU
pointer and reading the value of pc_curthread, resulting in curthread being
observed to be the current thread on the thread's original CPU. This played
merry havoc with the system, in particular with mutexes. Many thanks to
jhb for helping me work this one out.
Note that Book-E is in principle susceptible to the same problem, but has
not been modified yet due to lack of Book-E hardware.

some interesting bugs (mostly on SMP systems) with atomic operations
silently failing in interrupt heavy situations, especially when using
overflow pages.

masked can end up permanently masked when a handler on another CPU clobbers
the interrupt mask register with an old copy.
