atomic operations behave as if the were followed by a memory barrier so
there's no need to include ones in the acquire variants of atomic(9).
Removing these results a small performance improvement, specifically this
is sufficient to compensate the performance loss seen in the worldstone
benchmark seen when using SCHED_ULE instead of SCHED_4BSD.
This change is inspired by Linux even more radically doing the equivalent
thing some time ago.
Thanks go to Peter Jeremy for additional testing.
This patch is going to help in cases like mips flavours where you

the TLBs in order to get rid of the user mappings but instead traverse
them an flush only the latter like we also do for the Spitfire-class.
Also flushing the unlocked kernel entries can cause instant faults which
when called from within cpu_switch() are handled with the scheduler lock
held which in turn can cause timeouts on the acquisition of the lock by
other CPUs. This was easily seen with a 16-core V890 but occasionally
also happened with 2-way machines.
While at it, move the SPARC64-V support code entirely to zeus.c. This
causes a little bit of duplication but is less confusing than partially
using Cheetah-class bits for these.
- For SPARC64-V ensure that 4-Mbyte page entries are stored in the 1024-
entry, 2-way set associative TLB.
- In {d,i}tlb_get_data_sun4u() turn off the interrupts in order to ensure
that ASI_{D,I}TLB_DATA_ACCESS_REG actually are read twice back-to-back.

more than three temporary register in several places CATR() is used so
this code trades instructions in for registers. Actually, this still isn't
sufficient and CATR() has the side-effect of clobbering %y. Luckily, with
the current uses of CATR() this either doesn't matter or we are able to
(save and) restore it.
Now that there's only one use of AND() and TEST() left inline these.
This introduce all the underlying support for making this possible (via

properly check it. Anyway the sparc64 logic is not implemented yet due
to lack of knowledge (by me) and time (by marius), but it is just a
matter of using ktr_cpumask when possible.

On some architectures UCHAR_MAX and USHRT_MAX had type unsigned int.
However, lacking integer suffixes for types smaller than int, their type
should correspond to that of an object of type unsigned char (or short)
when used in an expression with objects of type int. In that case unsigned
char (short) are promoted to int (i.e. signed) so the type of UCHAR_MAX and
USHRT_MAX should also be int.
Where MIN/MAX constants implicitly have the correct type the suffix has
been removed.
While here, correct some comments.

which takes an physical address instead of an virtual one, for loading TTEs
of the kernel TSB so we no longer need to lock the kernel TSB into the dTLB,
which only has a very limited number of lockable dTLB slots. The net result
is that we now basically can handle a kernel TSB of any size and no longer
need to limit the kernel address space based on the number of dTLB slots
available for locked entries. Consequently, other parts of the trap handlers
now also only access the the kernel TSB via its physical address in order
to avoid nested traps, as does the PMAP bootstrap code as we haven't taken
over the trap table at that point, yet. Apart from that the kernel TSB now
is accessed via a direct mapping when we are otherwise taking advantage of
ASI_ATOMIC_QUAD_LDD_PHYS so no further code changes are needed. Most of this
is implemented by extending the patching of the TSB addresses and mask as
well as the ASIs used to load it into the trap table so the runtime overhead
of this change is rather low. Currently the use of ASI_ATOMIC_QUAD_LDD_PHYS
is not yet enabled on SPARC64 CPUs due to lack of testing and due to the
fact it might require minor adjustments there.
Theoretically it should be possible to use the same approach also for the
user TSB, which already is not locked into the dTLB, avoiding nested traps.
However, for reasons I don't understand yet OpenSolaris only does that with
SPARC64 CPUs. On the other hand I think that also addressing the user TSB
physically and thus avoiding nested traps would get us closer to sharing
this code with sun4v, which only supports trap level 0 and 1, so eventually
we could have a single kernel which runs on both sun4u and sun4v (as does
Linux and OpenBSD).

advantage of ASI_ATOMIC_QUAD_LDD_PHYS on CPUs providing it so we don't need

64-bit kernel address space available on relevant machines.

Unlike the uncommitted US-III version, which provide no measurable
