like the args to the config space accessors these functions replaced.
This reduces the likelyhood of overflow when the args are used in
macros on the alpha. This prevents memory management faults when
probing the pci bus on sables, multias and nonames.

- Use ACPI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS
- RSDT -> XSDT
- FACP -> FADT
- No APIC table support
- Don't install a global EC handler; this has bad side-effects
(it invokes _REG in *all* EC spaces in the namespace!)
- Check for PCI bus instances already existing before adding them
but a hack! Add `flags 0x8000' to the psm driver to enable it.
The psm driver will try to get out of out-of-sync situation
by disabling the mouse and immediately enable it again.
If you are seeing this out-of-sync problem because of an
incompetent(?!) KVM switch, this hack will NOT be good
for you. However, if you are occasionally seeing the
problem because of lost mouse interrupt, this might help.
lock. Otherwise, if we block on the backing mutex while releasing the
allproc lock, then when we resume, we will be at SRUN, and we will stay
that way all the way through cpu_exit. As a result, our parent will never
harvest us.
depend on MUTEX_DEBUG. The MUTEX_DEBUG option turns on extra assertions
and checks to verify that mutexes themselves are implemented properly.
The WITNESS option uses extra checks and diagnostics to verify that other
code is using mutexes properly.
passed vnode must be locked; this is the case because of calls
to VOP_GETATTR(), VOP_ACCESS(), and VOP_OPEN(). This becomes
more of an issue when VOP_ACCESS() gets a bit more complicated,
which it does when you introduce ACL, Capability, and MAC
support.

recently discussed at -hackers. The problem is a null-pointer
dereference that happens in kern/vfs_lookup.c when accessing ".."
with a v_mount entry for the current directory vnode of NULL. This
happens when a volume is forcibly unmounted, and the vnode for a
working directory in the mounted volume is cleared.

process is on the alternate stack or not. For compatibility
with sigstack(2) state is being updated if such is needed.
We now determine whether the process is on the alternate
stack by looking at its stack pointer. This allows a process
to siglongjmp from a signal handler on the alternate stack
to the place of the sigsetjmp on the normal stack. When
maintaining state, this would have invalidated the state
information and causing a subsequent signal to be delivered
on the normal stack instead of the alternate stack.

-current and RELENG_4 with GENERIC.
NKPT is the number of initial bootstrap page table pages we create for
the kernel during startup. Once VM is up, we resize it as needed, but
with 4G ram, the size of the vm_page_t structures was pushing it over
the limit. The fact that trimmed down kernels boot on 4G ram machines
suggests that we were pretty close to the edge.
The "30" is arbitary, but smaller than the 'nkpt' variable on all
machines that I checked.
- Use a better test for determining when a process is running.
- Convert some checks to assertions.
- Remove unnecessary tests.
- Save the priority before acquiring a mutex rather than in msleep(9).
