f82d0672c7 config checksum is over the entire fixed portion, not just the
config header. FreeBSD doesn't check this but other o/s's do.

b060ba5024 Simplify the assignment of memory to virtual machines by requiring a single
command line option "-m <memsize in MB>" to specify the memory size.

Prior to this change the user needed to explicitly specify the amount of
memory allocated below 4G (-m <lowmem>) and the amount above 4G (-M <highmem>).

The "-M" option is no longer supported by 'bhyveload' and 'bhyve'.

The start of the PCI hole is fixed at 3GB and cannot be directly changed
using command line options. However it is still possible to change this in
special circumstances via the 'vm_set_lowmem_limit()' API provided by
libvmmapi.

91039bb268 Specify the length of the mapping requested from 'paddr_guest2host()'.
This seems prudent to do in its own right but it also opens up the possibility
of not having to mmap the entire guest address space in the 'bhyve' process
context.

e285ef8d28 Rename fbsdrun.* -> bhyverun.*
bhyve is intended to be a generic hypervisor, and not FreeBSD-specific.

(renaming internal routines will come later)

fbfc1c763c Remove mptable generation code from libvmmapi and move it to bhyve.
Firmware tables require too much knowledge of system configuration,
and it's difficult to pass that information in general terms to a library.
The upcoming ACPI work exposed this - it will also livein bhyve.

Also, remove code specific to NetApp from the mptable name, and remove
the -n option from bhyve.
