CR4. This bit is specific to the Intel VTX and removing it makes the library
more portable to AMD/SVM.
In the Intel VTX implementation, the hypervisor will ensure that this bit is
always set. See vmx_fix_cr4() for details.

zalloc and userboot seem to want to use ~600KB of heap space, which
results in a segfault when malloc fails in bhyveload.

These probes are most useful when looking into the structures
they provide, which are listed in io.d. For example:
dtrace -n 'io:genunix::start { printf("%d\n", args[0]->bio_bcount); }'
Note that the I/O systems in FreeBSD and Solaris/Illumos are sufficiently
different that there is not a 1:1 mapping from scripts that work
with one to the other.

PCI:
- Properly handle interrupt fallback from MSIX to MSI to legacy.
The host may not have sufficient resources to support MSIX,
so we must be able to fallback to legacy interrupts.
- Add interface to get the (sub) vendor and device IDs.
- Rename flags to VTPCI_FLAG_* like other VirtIO drivers.
Block:
- No longer allocate vtblk_requests from separate UMA zone.
malloc(9) from M_DEVBUF is sufficient. Assert segment counts
at allocation.
- More verbose error and debug messages.
Network:
- Remove stray write once variable.
Virtqueue:
- Shuffle code around in preparation of converting the mb()s to
the appropriate atomic(9) operations.
- Only walk the descriptor chain when freeing if INVARIANTS is
defined since the result is only KASSERT()ed.

If an error occurs when transmitting one mbuf in a chain of fragments,
free the subsequent fragments instead of leaking them.

the FIFO.
I still see some corner cases where no RX occurs when it should be
occuring. It's quite possible that there's a subtle race condition
somewhere; or maybe I'm not programming the RX queues right.
There's also no locking here yet, so any reset/configuration path
state change (ie, enabling/disabling receive from the ioctl, net80211
taskqueue, etc) could quite possibly confuse things.
* For now, kickpcu should hopefully just do nothing - the PCU doesn't need
'kicking' for Osprey and later NICs. The PCU will just restart once
the next FIFO entry is pushed in.
* Teach "proc" about "dosched", so it can be used to just flush the
FIFO contents without adding new FIFO entries.
* .. and now, implement the RX "flush" routine.
* Re-initialise the FIFO contents if the FIFO is empty (the DP is NULL.)
When PCU RX is disabled (ie, writing RX_D to the RX configuration
register) then the FIFO will be completely emptied. If the software FIFO
is full, then no further descriptors are pushed into the FIFO and
things stall.
This all requires much, much more thorough stress testing.
debugger exited without calling ptrace(PT_DETACH), there is a time window
that the p_xthread may be pointing to non-existing thread, in practical,
this is not a problem because child process soon will be killed by parent
process.
