Alan Cox dd05fa1945 Add a page size field to struct vm_page. Increase the page size field when
a partially populated reservation becomes fully populated, and decrease this
field when a fully populated reservation becomes partially populated.

Use this field to simplify the implementation of pmap_enter_object() on
amd64, arm, and i386.

On all architectures where we support superpages, the cost of creating a
superpage mapping is roughly the same as creating a base page mapping.  For
example, both kinds of mappings entail the creation of a single PTE and PV
entry.  With this in mind, use the page size field to make the
implementation of vm_map_pmap_enter(..., MAP_PREFAULT_PARTIAL) a little
smarter.  Previously, if MAP_PREFAULT_PARTIAL was specified to
vm_map_pmap_enter(), that function would only map base pages.  Now, it will
create up to 96 base page or superpage mappings.
