Uses of mallocarray(9).
The use of mallocarray(9) has rocketed the required swap to build FreeBSD.
This is likely caused by the allocation size attributes which put extra pressure
on the compiler.
Given that most of these checks are superfluous we have to choose better
where to use mallocarray(9). We still have more uses of mallocarray(9) but
hopefully this is enough to bring swap usage to a reasonable level.

kernel by PHYS_TO_DMAP() as previously present on amd64, arm64, riscv, and
powerpc64. This introduces a new MI macro (PMAP_HAS_DMAP) that can be
evaluated at runtime to determine if the architecture has a direct map;
if it does not (or does) unconditionally and PMAP_HAS_DMAP is either 0 or
1, the compiler can remove the conditional logic.
As part of this, implement PHYS_TO_DMAP() on sparc64 and mips64, which had
similar things but spelled differently. 32-bit MIPS has a partial direct-map
that maps poorly to this concept and is unchanged.

Focus on code where we are doing multiplications within malloc(9). None of
these ire likely to overflow, however the change is still useful as some
static checkers can benefit from the allocation attributes we use for
mallocarray.
This initial sweep only covers malloc(9) calls with M_NOWAIT. No good
reason but I started doing the changes before r327796 and at that time it
was convenient to make sure the sorrounding code could handle NULL values.

The slab layer is now segregated by VM domains and is precise. It handles
iteration for round-robin directly. The per-cpu cache layer remains
a mix of domains according to where memory is allocated and freed. Well

The direct domain allocation functions have to visit the slab layer and
so require per-zone locks which come at some expense.

It came into the tree with the project/mips merge 8 years ago. At the
time, it was hard to find a board with enough RAM to run. Now FreeBSD
requires at least 2x the RAM it did then. No changes have happened to
this port apart from API churn and license tagging since then. It ran
OK at the time it was committed, but no sightings in the wild have
happened since shortly after it was committed.

They provide relaxed-ordered atomic access semantic. Due to the
FreeBSD memory model, the operations are syntaxical wrappers around
the volatile accesses. The volatile qualifier is used to ensure that
the access not optimized out and in turn depends on the volatile
semantic as implemented by supported compilers.
The motivation for adding the operation is to help people coming from
other systems or knowing the C11/C++ standards where atomics have
special type and require use of the special access operations. It is
still the case that FreeBSD requires plain load and stores of aligned
integer types to be atomic.

The bwn(4) driver requires a number of extensions to the bhnd(4) PMU
interface to support external configuration of PLLs, LDOs, and other
parameters that require chipset or PHY-specific workarounds.
These changes add support for:
- Writing raw voltage register values to PHY-specific LDO regulator
registers (required by LP-PHY).
- Enabling/disabling PHY-specific LDOs (required by LP-PHY)
- Writing to arbitrary PMU chipctrl registers (required for common PHY PLL
reset support).
- Requesting chipset/PLL-specific spurious signal avoidance modes.
- Querying clock frequency and latency.
Additionally, rather than updating legacy PWRCTL support to conform to the
new PMU interface:
- PWRCTL API is now provided by a bhnd_pwrctl_if.m interface.
- Since PWRCTL is only found in older SSB-based chipsets, translation from
bhnd(4) bus APIs to corresponding PWRCTL operations is now handled
entirely within the siba(4) driver.
- The PWRCTL-specific host bridge clock gating APIs in bhnd_bus_if.m have
been lifted out into a standalone bhnd_pwrctl_hostb_if.m interface.

On BHND MIPS SoCs, this replaces the use of hard-coded MIPS IRQ#s in the
common bhnd(4) core drivers; we now register an INTRNG child PIC that
handles routing of backplane interrupt vectors via the MIPS core.
On BHND PCI devices, backplane interrupt vectors are now routed to the
PCI/PCIe host bridge core when bus_setup_intr() is called, where they are
dispatched by the PCI core via a host interrupt (e.g. INTx/MSI).
The bhndb(4) bridge driver tracks registered interrupt handlers for the
bridged bhnd(4) devices and manages backplane interrupt routing, while
delegating actual bus interrupt setup/teardown to the parent bus on behalf
of the bridged cores.

all write the dump sequentially, so we can reduce code duplication by

This is needed to implement support for kernel dump compression in the
