where running ofwdump could cause hangs by forcing all secondary CPUs
into a busy wait with interrupts off during the call.
Following section 8.4 of the Open Firmware PowerPC processor binding,
the firmware is free to overwrite the system interrupt handlers during
OF calls, restoring the OS handlers on exit. On single CPU systems, this
process is invisible to the operating system. On multiple CPU systems,
taking any exception on a secondary CPU while an OF call is in progress
ends with that exception vectored into OF, resulting in a slow movement
of the entire system into firmware context and a machine hang.

here, make the style of assertion used by pmap_enter() consistent
across all architectures.
On entry to pmap_remove_write(), assert that the page is neither
unmanaged nor fictitious, since we cannot remove write access to
either kind of page.
With the push down of the page queues lock, pmap_remove_write() cannot
condition its behavior on the state of the PG_WRITEABLE flag if the
page is busy. Assert that the object containing the page is locked.
This allows us to know that the page will neither become busy nor will
PG_WRITEABLE be set on it while pmap_remove_write() is running.
Correct a long-standing bug in vm_page_cowsetup(). We cannot possibly
do copy-on-write-based zero-copy transmit on unmanaged or fictitious
pages, so don't even try. Previously, the call to pmap_remove_write()
would have failed silently.

This is limited to these two machines because our kernel is heavily
dependent on firmware accesses, and so quiescing firmware can cause
nasty problems.

Switch to a per-processor counter for the total number of pages cached.
Clearing a page table entry's accessed bit and setting the page's

don't do it.
Additionally, two changes that make this pmap behave like the others do:
Change pmap_protect() such that it calls vm_page_dirty() only if the
page is managed.
Change pmap_remove_write() such that it doesn't clear a page table
entry's accessed bit.

pmap_ts_referenced() is not always appropriate for checking whether or
not pages have been referenced because it clears any reference bits
that it encounters. For example, in mincore(), clearing the reference
bits has two negative consequences. First, it throws off the activity
count calculations performed by the page daemon. Specifically, a page
on which mincore() has called pmap_ts_referenced() looks less active
to the page daemon than it should. Consequently, the page could be
deactivated prematurely by the page daemon. Arguably, this problem
could be fixed by having mincore() duplicate the activity count
calculation on the page. However, there is a second problem for which
that is not a solution. In order to clear a reference on a 4KB page,
it may be necessary to demote a 2/4MB page mapping. Thus, a mincore()
by one process can have the side effect of demoting a superpage
mapping within another process!

mappings.
Solve this by creating a new flag, LPTE_LOCKED, such that
moea64_pte_insert will avoid claiming locked PTEG slots even if they
