- Move the enabling of interrupts out of assembly and into C a few
instructions later at cpu_critical_fork_exit(). This puts more of the
MD critical section implementation under the MD critical section API
making it easier to test and develop alternative implementations.
Also change "Auto mode" to use a "special" value
instead of 0, and define and document it.
I had thought libpthread had already been switched to use auto mode but
it appears that patch hasn't been committed yet.

there is code that blindly allocates LDTEs starting at slot 6
and I quess it doesn't really matter to us if they overwrite the BSDI
syscall slot, since it isn't a BSDI binary. Also add some code to help track
down other such users (commented out for now).

balance the IRQs that we arbitrarily pick, but it should help some
people that would otherwise get bad IRQs.
The other option would be to remove it, but I can imagine it may be useful
for the forseeable future as we fiddle with segments in KSE and thr libraries,
that while many maps can exist and be loaded per tag, bus_dmamap_load() and
friends can only be called on one map at a time from the tag. This is
enforced via the mutex arguments in the tag.
Fixing this bug means that s/g lists can be arbitrarily long in length, and
also removes an ugly GNU-ism from the code. No API or ABI change is
incurred. Similar changes for other platforms is forthcoming.
created not only with UMA_ZONE_VM but also with UMA_ZONE_NOFREE. In
the i386 case in particular, the pmap code would hook a special
page allocation routine that allocated from kernel_map and not kmem_map,
and so when/if the pageout daemon drained the zones, it could actually
push out slabs from the PV ENTRY zone but call UMA's default page_free,
which resulted in pages allocated from kernel_map being freed to
kmem_map; bad. kmem_free() ignores the return value of the
vm_map_delete and just returns. I'm not sure what the exact
repercussions could be, but it doesn't look good.
In the PAE case on i386, we also set-up a zone in pmap, so be
conservative for now and make that zone also ZONE_NOFREE and
ZONE_VM. Do this for the pmap zones for the other archs too,
although in some cases it may not be entirely necessarily. We'd
rather be safe than sorry at this point.
Perhaps all UMA_ZONE_VM zones should by default be also
UMA_ZONE_NOFREE?
May fix some of silby's crashes on the PV ENTRY zone.

Added Features:
o If start_sel is 0, num_sels is 1 and the descriptor pointed to by descs
is legal, then i386_set_ldt() will allocate a descriptor and return its
selector numbe
o If num_descs is 1, start_sels is valid, and descs is NULL, then
i386_set_ldt() will free that descriptor (making it available to be real-
located again later).
o If num_descs is 0, start_sels is 0 and descs is NULL then, as a special
case, i386_set_ldt() will free all descriptors.

HIDENAME() macro seems to be unimplementable in C. (HIDENAME() used
to use invalid token pasting using ## for the STDC case until gcc
started rejecting that; now it uses unportable token pasting using
juxtaposition in all cases.) This reduces use of HIDENAME() in the
kernel to only i386 and amd64 profiling code so that it doesn't bite
most kernels whenever gcc becomes stricter. Problems with HIDENAME()
in userland are smaller because userland mostly doesn't use strict
flags yet. There are some advantages to hiding the name of mcount,
but newer arches shouldn't do it; only amd64 does.
