Introduce pmap_try_insert_pv_entry(), a function that conditionally
creates a pv entry if the number of entries is below the high water mark
for pv entries.
Introduce pmap_enter_quick_locked() and use it to reimplement
pmap_enter_object(). The old implementation was broken. For example,
it could block while holding a mutex lock.
Change pmap_enter_quick_locked() to fail rather than wait if it is
unable to allocate a page table page. This prevents a race between
pmap_enter_object() and the page daemon. Specifically, an inactive
page that is a successor to the page that was given to
pmap_enter_quick_locked() might become a cache page while
pmap_enter_quick_locked() waits and later pmap_enter_object() maps
the cache page violating the invariant that cache pages are never
mapped. Similarly, change
pmap_enter_quick_locked() to call pmap_try_insert_pv_entry() rather
than pmap_insert_entry(). Generally speaking,
pmap_enter_quick_locked() is used to create speculative mappings. So,
it should not try hard to allocate memory if free memory is scarce.

1) Move the new field (brand_note) to the end of the Brandinfo structure.
2) Add a new flag BI_BRAND_NOTE that indicates that the brand_note pointer
is valid.
3) Use the brand_note field if the flag BI_BRAND_NOTE is set and as old
modules won't have the flag set, so the new field brand_note would be
ignored.

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.
This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

and bcmp are not the same thing. 'man bcmp' states that the return is
"non-zero" if the two byte strings are not identical. Where as,
'man memcmp' states that the return is the "difference between the
first two differing bytes (treated as unsigned char values" if the
two byte strings are not identical.
So provide a proper memcmp(9), but it is a C implementation not a tuned
assembly implementation. Therefore bcmp(9) should be preferred over memcmp(9).
