byteorder(3) functions.
o Fix ordering of prototypes vs. redefinition of byteorder(3)

o Add proper prototypes for byteorder(3) functions in <sys/param.h>.
o Prevent redundant duplicate prototypes by making use of the
_BYTEORDER_PROTOTYPED define.
o Move the bswap16(), bswap32(), bswap64() C functions into MD space
for platforms in which asm versions don't exist. This significantly
reduces the complexity of some things at the cost of duplicate code.

I put these in to match the use of spl*() in the NetBSD code I was basing this
on, but it appears to cause problems.
I'm doing this in a separate commit so as to be able to refer back if locking
becomes an issue at a later stage.
In order to determine what to page out, the vm_daemon checks
reference bits on all pages belonging to all processes. Unfortunately,
the algorithm used reacted badly with shared pages; each shared page
would be checked once per process sharing it; this caused an O(N^2)
growth of tlb invalidations. The algorithm has been changed so that
each page will be checked only 16 times.
Prior to this change, a fork/sleepbomb of 1300 processes could cause
the vm_daemon to take over 60 seconds to complete, effectively
freezing the system for that time period. With this change
in place, the vm_daemon completes in less than a second. Any system
with hundreds of processes sharing pages should benefit from this change.
Note that the vm_daemon is only run when the system is under extreme
memory pressure. It is likely that many people with loaded systems saw
no symptoms of this problem until they reached the point where swapping
began.
Special thanks go to dillon, peter, and Chuck Cranor, who helped me
get up to speed with vm internals.

device drivers for bus system with other endinesses than the CPU (using
interfaces compatible to NetBSD):
- bwap16() and bswap32(). These have optimized implementations on some
architectures; for those that don't, there exist generic implementations.
- macros to convert from a certain byte order to host byte order and vice
versa, using a naming scheme like le16toh(), htole16().
These are implemented using the bswap functions.
- stream bus space access functions, which do not perform a byte order
conversion (while the normal access functions would if the bus endianess
differs from the CPU endianess).
htons(), htonl(), ntohs() and ntohl() are implemented using the new
functions above for kernel usage. None of the above interfaces is currently
exported to user land.
Make use of the new functions in a few places where local implementations
of the same functionality existed.

While in userland, keep the thread's ucred reference in a shadow
field so that the usual place to store it is NULL.
If DIAGNOSTIC is not set, the thread ucred is kept valid until the next
kernel entry, at which time it is checked against the process cred
and possibly corrected. Produces a BIG speedup in
kernels with INVARIANTS set. (A previous commit corrected it
for the non INVARIANTS case already)

The new pmap.c is based on NetBSD's newer pmap.c (for the mpc6xx processors)
which is 70% faster than the older code that the original pmap.c was based
on. It has also been based on the framework established by jake's initial
sparc64 pmap.c.
There is no change to how far the kernel gets (it makes it to the mountroot

this is a low-functionality change that changes the kernel to access the main

assuming that it is embedded in the process. It IS still embeded there

some arches and the syscall table is machine-independent. It was
(bogusly) conditional on COMPAT_43, so this usually makes no difference.
ia64: in addition:
- replace the bogus cloned comment before osigreturn() by a correct one.
osigreturn() is just a stub fo ia64's.
- fix the formatting of cloned comment before sigreturn().
- fix the return code. use nosys() instead of returning ENOSYS to get
the same semantics as if the syscall is not in the syscall table.
Generating SIGSYS is actually correct here.
- fix style bugs.

- The MD functions critical_enter/exit are renamed to start with a cpu_
prefix.
- MI wrapper functions critical_enter/exit maintain a per-thread nesting
count and a per-thread critical section saved state set when entering
a critical section while at nesting level 0 and restored when exiting
to nesting level 0. This moves the saved state out of spin mutexes so
that interlocking spin mutexes works properly.
- Most low-level MD code that used critical_enter/exit now use
cpu_critical_enter/exit. MI code such as device drivers and spin
mutexes use the MI wrappers. Note that since the MI wrappers store
the state in the current thread, they do not have any return values or
arguments.
- mtx_intr_enable() is replaced with a constant CRITICAL_FORK which is
assigned to curthread->td_savecrit during fork_exit().

- The MI portions of struct globaldata have been consolidated into a MI
struct pcpu. The MD per-CPU data are specified via a macro defined in
machine/pcpu.h. A macro was chosen over a struct mdpcpu so that the
interface would be cleaner (PCPU_GET(my_md_field) vs.
PCPU_GET(md.md_my_md_field)).
- All references to globaldata are changed to pcpu instead. In a UP kernel,
this data was stored as global variables which is where the original name
came from. In an SMP world this data is per-CPU and ideally private to each
CPU outside of the context of debuggers. This also included combining
machine/globaldata.h and machine/globals.h into machine/pcpu.h.
- The pointer to the thread using the FPU on i386 was renamed from
npxthread to fpcurthread to be identical with other architectures.
- Make the show pcpu ddb command MI with a MD callout to display MD
fields.
- The globaldata_register() function was renamed to pcpu_init() and now
init's MI fields of a struct pcpu in addition to registering it with
the internal array and list.
- A pcpu_destroy() function was added to remove a struct pcpu from the
internal array and list.

{set,fill}_{,fp,db}regs() fixup:
- Add dummy {set,fill}_dbregs() on architectures that don't have them.
- KSEfy the powerpc versions (struct proc -> struct thread).
- Some architectures had the prototypes in md_var.h, some in reg.h, and
some in both; for consistency, move them to reg.h on all platforms.
These functions aren't really MD (the implementation is MD, but the interface
is MI), so they should move to an MI header, but I haven't figured out which
one yet.
Run-tested on i386, build-tested on Alpha, untested on other platforms.
