- %fs register is added to trapframe and saved/restored upon kernel entry/exit.
- Per-cpu pages are no longer mapped at the same virtual address.
- Each cpu now has a separate gdt selector table. A new segment selector
is added to point to per-cpu pages, per-cpu global variables are now
accessed through this new selector (%fs). The selectors in gdt table are
rearranged for cache line optimization.
- fask_vfork is now on as default for both UP and SMP.
- Some aio code cleanup.

Update the support files so that any pages in the vm86 page table are
mapped, rather than just one page.
Restore the E820 memory probe, and have it use the new interface.

alignment in any of the files changed in this commit, at least for
gcc on i386's. Using bitfields of type u_char may affect size and
alignment but not packing)).
everything is contained inside #ifdef VM86, so this option must be
present in the config file to use this functionality.
Thanks to Tor Egge, these changes should work on SMP machines. However,
it may not be throughly SMP-safe.
Currently, the only BIOS calls made are memory-sizing routines at bootup,
these replace reading the RTC values.
