The MD allocators were very common, however there were some minor
differencies. These differencies were all consolidated in the MI allocator,
under ifdefs. The defines from machine/vmparam.h turn on features required
for a particular machine. For details look in the comment in sys/sf_buf.h.
As result no MD code left in sys/*/*/vm_machdep.c. Some arches still have
machine/sf_buf.h, which is usually quite small.

- Move the sf_buf API to its own header file; make struct sf_buf's
definition machine dependent. In this commit, we remove an
unnecessary field from struct sf_buf on the alpha, amd64, and ia64.
Ultimately, we may eliminate struct sf_buf on those architecures
except as an opaque pointer that references a vm page.
