The patch crudely forces the NIC out of operating mode before the nve(4)
driver can initialize it; this is required to properly initialize the NIC.
It is XBox-specific, as this condition can only occur on XBoxes (Most loaders
will simply leave the NIC running, forcing us to use a crude workaround like
this to get it in a workable condition). Due to the XBox-only aspect, this has
been solved in XBox-specific initialization code and not within nve(4).

is a fatal fault if we are holding any non-sleepable locks. This should
cut down on the number of bogus LORs we currently get when the kernel
panics due to a NULL (or bogus) pointer dereference that goes wandering
off into the VM system which tries to acquire locks and then kicks off
the spurious LORs. This should probably be ported to all the archs at
some point.

- provide an interface (macros) to the page coloring part of the VM system,
this allows to try different coloring algorithms without the need to
touch every file [1]
- make the page queue tuning values readable: sysctl vm.stats.pagequeue
- autotuning of the page coloring values based upon the cache size instead
of options in the kernel config (disabling of the page coloring as a
kernel option is still possible)
MD changes:
- detection of the cache size: only IA32 and AMD64 (untested) contains
cache size detection code, every other arch just comes with a dummy
function (this results in the use of default values like it was the
case without the autotuning of the page coloring)
- print some more info on Intel CPU's (like we do on AMD and Transmeta
CPU's)
Note to AMD owners (IA32 and AMD64): please run "sysctl vm.stats.pagequeue"
and report if the cache* values are zero (= bug in the cache detection code)
or not.

passing a pointer to an opaque clockframe structure and requiring the
MD code to supply CLKF_FOO() macros to extract needed values out of the
opaque structure, just pass the needed values directly. In practice this
means passing the pair (usermode, pc) to hardclock() and profclock() and
passing the boolean (usermode) to hardclock_cpu() and hardclock_process().
Other details:
- Axe clockframe and CLKF_FOO() macros on all architectures. Basically,
all the archs were taking a trapframe and converting it into a clockframe
one way or another. Now they can just extract the PC and usermode values
directly out of the trapframe and pass it to fooclock().
- Renamed hardclock_process() to hardclock_cpu() as the latter is more
accurate.
- On Alpha, we now run profclock() at hz (profhz == hz) rather than at
the slower stathz.
- On Alpha, for the TurboLaser machines that don't have an 8254
timecounter, call hardclock() directly. This removes an extra
conditional check from every clock interrupt on Alpha on the BSP.
There is probably room for even further pruning here by changing Alpha
to use the simplified timecounter we use on x86 with the lapic timer
since we don't get interrupts from the 8254 on Alpha anyway.
- On x86, clkintr() shouldn't ever be called now unless using_lapic_timer
is false, so add a KASSERT() to that affect and remove a condition
to slightly optimize the non-lapic case.
- Change prototypeof arm_handler_execute() so that it's first arg is a
trapframe pointer rather than a void pointer for clarity.
- Use KCOUNT macro in profclock() to lookup the kernel profiling bucket.

if the boot CPU has a local APIC because some BIOS vendors are not
competent enough to set this bit. Instead, just assume that we always have
a local APIC on amd64. For i386 the check is a bit more subtle. FreeBSD
requires either an MP Table or an ACPI MADT table to enumerate APICs. The
only systems that have one of those tables that don't have local APICs are
some presumably rare (and old) SMP 486 systems using external APICs. Thus,
instead of checking the CPUID_APIC flag, check the CPU class and abort if
we are running on a 486.
