pmap.c: tons of unused vars zapped, various other warnings silenced.
trap.c: unused vars zapped.
vm_machdep.c: A wrong argument, which by chance did the right thing, was
corrected.
the first place was so that BPF could grok trailer packets. I've since
decided that this is a job for tcpdump to decipher (if at all). Also
fixed up checks for received packet length to better cope with ancient
starlan boards.
1) cut this up into /sys/sys/inflate.h, sys/kern/inflate.c
sys/kern/ingact_gzip.c
2) make a lot more things static
3) make a lot of globals const
4) make some args const
5) first stage of making globals into a struct (not used yet)
The vm_allocate() call which was introduced between revisions 1.4 and
1.5 of imagact_gzip.c broke things. I have backed that out for the time
being. (Davidg: help please)
WARNING: if you have gzip enabled in your kernel, you must now run
config again, as another source file has been added. Otherwise your
kernel compile will fall over.
This is all still WIP. More commits to come.
Suggestions from: phk.

WARNING: might hide some bug below! I commit this to improve the stability
of 2.0.

I have been running a kernel with this change since October 4th; barring
unrelated network router troubles, the pitiful little machine has
completed several builds without any interaction from me, and continues
to chug along.
I re-read wd.c, and added appropriate printfs() to look for references
to dk_badsect[]. My changes should have printed something when dk_badsect[]
was referenced.
I got no output :-(
Thus, I'm forced to concluded that something else is examining some
spurious memory... which happened to be in dk_badsect[] of the disk structure
in wd.c. I can find no other explanation of why this unnecessary
initialization causes things to operate correctly.
On the premise that such an initialization isn't going to hurt anything,
I'm going to suggest it go into 2.0.
I'd like to thank everyone for there assistance, particularly David,
John and Bruce.
