I'm not convinced there is anything major wrong with the patch but
them's the rules..
I am using my "David's mentor" hat to revert this as he's
offline for a while.
- remove dead code and fix warnings in pmap_zero_page/zero_page_area
- implement
pmap_clear_reference
pmap_ts_referenced
pmap_page_exists_quick
pmap_remove_all
- align pmap_qenter/qremove closer with i386 code
- fix vm_page locking in pmap_new_thread (from benno)
- add new parameter to pmap_clear_bit to return original
pte value

- Store the OpenFirmware "reg" property in the macio ivars.
- Use a struct to define the structure of a "reg" property entry.
- Discover all memory ranges, not just the first.
- In ata_macio, manage our own range and hand out our own allocations using
bus_space_subregion.
- Fix bus_space_subregion to handle subregions of sparse maps.
data structure called kse_upcall to manage UPCALL. All KSE binding
and loaning code are gone.
A thread owns an upcall can collect all completed syscall contexts in
its ksegrp, turn itself into UPCALL mode, and takes those contexts back
to userland. Any thread without upcall structure has to export their
contexts and exit at user boundary.
Any thread running in user mode owns an upcall structure, when it enters
kernel, if the kse mailbox's current thread pointer is not NULL, then
when the thread is blocked in kernel, a new UPCALL thread is created and
the upcall structure is transfered to the new UPCALL thread. if the kse
mailbox's current thread pointer is NULL, then when a thread is blocked
in kernel, no UPCALL thread will be created.
Each upcall always has an owner thread. Userland can remove an upcall by
calling kse_exit, when all upcalls in ksegrp are removed, the group is
atomatically shutdown. An upcall owner thread also exits when process is
in exiting state. when an owner thread exits, the upcall it owns is also
removed.
KSE is a pure scheduler entity. it represents a virtual cpu. when a thread
is running, it always has a KSE associated with it. scheduler is free to
assign a KSE to thread according thread priority, if thread priority is changed,
KSE can be moved from one thread to another.
When a ksegrp is created, there is always N KSEs created in the group. the
N is the number of physical cpu in the current system. This makes it is
possible that even an userland UTS is single CPU safe, threads in kernel still
can execute on different cpu in parallel. Userland calls kse_create to add more
upcall structures into ksegrp to increase concurrent in userland itself, kernel
is not restricted by number of upcalls userland provides.
The code hasn't been tested under SMP by author due to lack of hardware.

metadata. This fixes module dependency resolution by the kernel linker on
sparc64, where the relocations for the metadata are different than on other
architectures; the relative offset is in the addend of an Elf_Rela record
instead of the original value of the location being patched.
Also fix printf formats in debug code.

portable copy. Note that pmap_extract() must be used instead of
pmap_kextract().
This is precursor work to a reorganization of vmapbuf() to close remaining
user/kernel races (which can lead to a panic).
- Add a quirk type for devices whose interrupt properties are actually
attached to their children.
- Flag the "escc" (zs-alike serial controller) device as having this quirk.
- Rework the interrupt discovery code to deal with devices that have more than
one interrupt.
i386 cpu_thread_exit(). This resulted in a panic with WITNESS
since we need to hold Giant to call kmem_free(), and we weren't
helding it anymore in cpu_thread_exit(). We now do this from a
new MD function, cpu_thread_dtor(), called by thread_dtor().

Previously these were libc functions but were requested to
be made into system calls for atomicity and to coalesce what
might be two entrances into the kernel (signal mask setting
and floating point trap) into one.
A few style nits and comments from bde are also included.

to reflect its new location, and add page queue and flag locking.
Notes: (1) alpha, i386, and ia64 had identical implementations
of pmap_collect() in terms of machine-independent interfaces;
(2) sparc64 doesn't require it; (3) powerpc had it as a TODO.
sysctls to MI code; this reduces code duplication and makes all of them
available on sparc64, and the latter two on powerpc.
The semantics by the i386 and pc98 hw.availpages is slightly changed:
previously, holes between ranges of available pages would be included,
while they are excluded now. The new behaviour should be more correct
and brings i386 in line with the other architectures.
Move physmem to vm/vm_init.c, where this variable is used in MI code.
