Reimplement "kernel_pmap" in the standard way.
Eliminate unused variables. (These are mostly variables that were
discarded by the machine-independent layer after FreeBSD 4.x.)
Properly handle a vm_page_alloc() failure in pmap_init().
Eliminate dead or legacy (FreeBSD 4.x) code.
Eliminate unnecessary page queues locking.
Eliminate some excess white space.
Correct the synchronization of pmap_page_exists_quick().

a fair number of static data structures, making this an unlikely
option to try to change without also changing source code. [1]
Change default cache line size on ia64, sparc64, and sun4v to 128
bytes, as this was what rtld-elf was already using on those
platforms. [2]

Introduce pmap_try_insert_pv_entry(), a function that conditionally
creates a pv entry if the number of entries is below the high water mark
for pv entries.
Introduce pmap_enter_quick_locked() and use it to reimplement
pmap_enter_object(). The old implementation was broken. For example,
it could block while holding a mutex lock.
Change pmap_enter_quick_locked() to fail rather than wait if it is
unable to allocate a page table page. This prevents a race between
pmap_enter_object() and the page daemon. Specifically, an inactive
page that is a successor to the page that was given to
pmap_enter_quick_locked() might become a cache page while
pmap_enter_quick_locked() waits and later pmap_enter_object() maps
the cache page violating the invariant that cache pages are never
mapped. Similarly, change
pmap_enter_quick_locked() to call pmap_try_insert_pv_entry() rather
than pmap_insert_entry(). Generally speaking,
pmap_enter_quick_locked() is used to create speculative mappings. So,
it should not try hard to allocate memory if free memory is scarce.

registers with ar71xx_bus_space_reversed. Note, that byte order
of values is handled by drivers. bus_spaces fixes only position
of register in word.
- Replace .hints hack for AR71XX UART with ar71xx_bus_space_reversed.
CACHE_LINE_SIZE constant. These constants are intended to
over-estimate the cache line size, and be used at compile-time
when a run-time tuning alternative isn't appropriate or
available.
Defaults for all architectures are 64 bytes, except powerpc
where it is 128 bytes (used on G5 systems).

to bus_space structure that defines access methods and hence every bus can
define own accessors. Default space is mips_bus_space_generic. It's a simple
interface to physical memory, values are read with regard to host system
byte order.
1) Move the new field (brand_note) to the end of the Brandinfo structure.
2) Add a new flag BI_BRAND_NOTE that indicates that the brand_note pointer
is valid.
3) Use the brand_note field if the flag BI_BRAND_NOTE is set and as old
modules won't have the flag set, so the new field brand_note would be
ignored.
