striping to a per device round-robin algorithm.
Because of the policy of not attempting to retain previous swap
allocation on page-out, this means that a newly added swap device
almost instantly takes its 1/N share of the I/O load but it takes
somewhat longer for it to assume it's 1/N share of the pages if there
is plenty of space on the other devices.
Change the 8G total swapspace limitation to 8G per device instead
by using a per device blist rather than one global blist. This
reduces the memory footprint by 75% (typically a couple hundred
kilobytes) for the common case with one swapdevice but NSWAPDEV=4.
Remove the compile time constant limit of number of swap devices,
there is no limit now. Instead of a fixed size array, store the
per swapdev structure in a TAILQ.
Total swap space is still addressed by a 32 bit page number and
therefore the upper limit is now 2^42 bytes = 16TB (for i386).
We still do not allocate the first page of each device in order to
give some amount of protection to any bsdlabel at the start of the
device.
A new device is appended after the existing devices in the swap space,
no attempt is made to fill in holes left behind by swapoff (this can
trivially be changed should it ever become a problem).
The sysctl vm.nswapdev now reflects the number of currently configured
swap devices.
Rename vm_swap_size to swap_pager_avail for consistency with other
exported names.
Change argument type for vm_proc_swapin_all() and swap_pager_isswapped()
to be a struct swdevt pointer rather than an index.
Not changed: we are still using blists to manage the free space,
but since the swapspace is no longer fragmented by the striping
different resource managers might fare better.
concurrent invocations from acquiring the same address(es). Also, in case
of an incomplete allocation, free any allocated pages.

1st one is relatively minor: according our own manpage, upper and lower
classes must be sorted, but currently not.
2nd one is serious:
tr '[:lower:]' '[:upper:]'
(and vice versa) currently works only if upper and lower classes
have exact the same number of elements. When it is not true, like for
many ISO8859-x locales which have bigger amount of lowercase letters,
tr may do nasty things.

for detailed description of desired tr behaviour in such cases.
sure that uma_dbg_free() is called if we're about to call
uma_zfree_internal() but we're asking it to skip the dtor and
uma_dbg_free() call itself. So, if we're about to call
uma_zfree_internal() from uma_zfree_arg() and skip == 1, call
uma_dbg_free() ourselves.
frame, occupying scratch registers r16 and up. We don't have to
save any scratch registers for syscalls, so we have plenty of
room there. Consequently, when we fetch the registers from the
process, we automaticly have all the arguments and don't need
to read them seperately.

EFI file system. When booting from a CD and there's already an EFI
system partition on the disk, setting the current device to unit 0
will select the harddisk. This invariably breaks installing FreeBSD
when other operating systems have been installed before.
We obviously want to do the same when we're booting over the network.
Maybe later.
Based on a patch (from memory) from: arun
there is code that blindly allocates LDTEs starting at slot 6
and I quess it doesn't really matter to us if they overwrite the BSDI
syscall slot, since it isn't a BSDI binary. Also add some code to help track
down other such users (commented out for now).
