Instead of:
foo = malloc(sizeof(foo), M_WAIT);
bzero(foo, sizeof(foo));
You can now (and please do) use:
foo = malloc(sizeof(foo), M_WAIT | M_ZERO);
In the future this will enable us to do idle-time pre-zeroing of
malloc-space.
On unload, remove references from freelist to memory type defined by module.
Print a warning if module defines and allocate its own memory type, but
didn't free it all on unload.

Order the SYSINIT() for MALLOC_DEFINE() correctly so that malloc()
doesn't have to waste time initializing itself. The
(SI_SUB_KMEM, SI_ORDER_ANY) order was shared with syscons' SYSINIT()
for scmeminit(), and scmeminit() calls malloc(), so malloc()
initialization was not always complete on the first call to malloc().

run out of KVM through a mmap()/fork() bomb that allocates hundreds
of thousands of vm_map_entry structures.
Add panic to make null-pointer dereference crash a little more verbose.
Add a new sysctl, vm.max_proc_mmap, which specifies the maximum number
of mmap()'d spaces (discrete vm_map_entry's in the process). The value
defaults to around 9000 for a 128MB machine. The test is scaled for the
number of processes sharing a vmspace (aka linux threads). Setting
the value to 0 disables the feature.

malloc region (kmem_map) to be wrong and semi-random on systems with more
than 1GB of RAM. This is not a complete fix, but is sufficient for
machines with 4GB or less of memory. A complete fix will require some
changes to the getenv stuff so that 64bit values can be passed around.
NOT FIXED: machines with more than 4GB of RAM (e.g. some large Alphas)
since we're still using ints to hold some of the values.

with malloc type at the tail of the list changed the list from
linear to circular. This seemed to cause surprisingly few problems,
but it now causes weird output from `vmstat -m', probably because
a more important malloc type is now at the tail of the list.
Fix it by abusing ks_limit instead of ks_next as a flag for being
on the list. Don't forget to clear the flag when a malloc type is
uninit'ed. Uninit'ing is still fundamentally broken -- it loses
history.

However; this introduces a new dependency on <sys/kernel.h> for things
that use MALLOC_DECLARE(). Bruce told me it is better to add sys/kernel.h

sys/malloc.h for kernel compiles. Updates to follow in subsequent commits.

2) When bringing in UPAGES, the pmap code needs to do another vm_page_lookup.
3) When appropriate, set the PG_A or PG_M bits a-priori to both avoid some
processor errata, and to minimize redundant processor updating of page
tables.
4) Modify pmap_protect so that it can only remove permissions (as it
originally supported.) The additional capability is not needed.
5) Streamline read-only to read-write page mappings.
6) For pmap_copy_page, don't enable write mapping for source page.
7) Correct and clean-up pmap_incore.
8) Cluster initial kern_exec pagin.
9) Removal of some minor lint from kern_malloc.
10) Correct some ioopt code.
11) Remove some dead code from the MI swapout routine.
12) Correct vm_object_deallocate (to remove backing_object ref.)
13) Fix dead object handling, that had problems under heavy memory load.
14) Add minor vm_page_lookup improvements.
15) Some pages are not in objects, and make sure that the vm_page.c can
properly support such pages.
16) Add some more page deficit handling.
17) Some minor code readability improvements.
1) Start using TSM.
Struct procs continue to point to upages structure, after being freed.
Struct vmspace continues to point to pte object and kva space for kstack.
u_map is now superfluous.
2) vm_map's don't need to be reference counted. They always exist either
in the kernel or in a vmspace. The vmspaces are managed by reference
counts.
3) Remove the "wired" vm_map nonsense.
4) No need to keep a cache of kernel stack kva's.
5) Get rid of strange looking ++var, and change to var++.
6) Change more data structures to use our "zone" allocator. Added
struct proc, struct vmspace and struct vnode. This saves a significant
amount of kva space and physical memory. Additionally, this enables
TSM for the zone managed memory.
7) Keep ioopt disabled for now.
8) Remove the now bogus "single use" map concept.
9) Use generation counts or id's for data structures residing in TSM, where
it allows us to avoid unneeded restart overhead during traversals, where
blocking might occur.
10) Account better for memory deficits, so the pageout daemon will be able
to make enough memory available (experimental.)
11) Fix some vnode locking problems. (From Tor, I think.)
12) Add a check in ufs_lookup, to avoid lots of unneeded calls to bcmp.
(experimental.)
13) Significantly shrink, cleanup, and make slightly faster the vm_fault.c
code. Use generation counts, get rid of unneded collpase operations,
and clean up the cluster code.
14) Make vm_zone more suitable for TSM.
This commit is partially as a result of discussions and contributions from
other people, including DG, Tor Egge, PHK, and probably others that I
have forgotten to attribute (so let me know, if I forgot.)
This is not the infamous, final cleanup of the vnode stuff, but a necessary
step. Vnode mgmt should be correct, but things might still change, and
there is still some missing stuff (like ioopt, and physical backing of
non-merged cache files, debugging of layering concepts.)
1) Fix the initialization of malloc structure that changed
due to perf opt.
2) Remove unneeded include.
3) An initialization assert added to malloc.

Fixed the !(KMEMSTATS || DIAGNOSTIC) case. The MALLOC() and FREE()
