in through the stack pointer, however this may have been misaligned
causing some userland applications to crash. A workaround was committed in
r284707 where userland would check if the aux vector was passed using the
old or new ABI and adjust the stack if needed. As 4 months have passed it
is time to move to the new ABI, with the expectation the compat code in csu
and the runtime linker to be removed in the future.

an extra argument to specify the number of 1GiB pages to map. This should
be a nop as we are only mapping a single page, but when we move to use an
extra level of page tables we will be able to map a second block, e.g. if
the kernel was loaded over a 1GiB boundary.
While trying to get multithreading working for CloudABI on aarch64, I
noticed that compare-and-exchange operations in kernelspace would always
fail. It turns out that we don't properly set the return value to 0 when
the compare and exchange succeeds.

- Move the required kernel compiler flags from Makefile.arm64 to kern.mk.
- Build arm64 modules as PIC; non-PIC relocations in .o for shared object
output cannot be handled.
- Do not try to install aarch64 symlink.
- A hack for arm64 to avoid ld -r stage. See the comment for the explanation.
Some functionality is lost, like ctf handling, but hopefully will be
restored after newer linker is available.

It is decided to go with the shared object file format for modules on
arm64, due to the Aarch64 instruction set details. Combination of the
signed 28-bit offset in the branch instructions encoding together with
the supported memory model of compilers makes the relocatable object
support impossible or at least too hard.

belong to a vm object, they can't be paged out. Since they can't be paged
out, they are never enqueued in a paging queue. Nonetheless, passing
PQ_INACTIVE to vm_page_unwire() creates the appearance that these pages
are being enqueued in the inactive queue. As of r288122, we can avoid
this false impression by passing PQ_NONE.

action, so the impact is not serious.
Remove duplicated interrupt disable in restore_registers macro, when
returning to usermode. The do_ast macro disabled interrupts for us.

We should not call vm_fault(), or send a signal, with interrupts
disabled. MI kernel code is not prepared for such environment, not to
mention that this increases system latency, since code appears to be
executing as being under spinlock.
The FAR register for data aborts is read before the interrupts are
enabled, to avoid its corruption due to nested exception or context
switch.
Add asserts, similar to the checks done by other architectures, about
not taking page faults in non-sleepable contexts, rather than die with
late and somewhat confusing witness diagnostic.

Currently FreeBSD supports only single PIC controller. Some systems
that have more than one (like ThunderX dual-socket) fails to boot.
Disable other PICes until proper handling is implemented in the
generic interrupt code.

running thread.
It is currently implemented only on amd64 and i386; on these
architectures, it is implemented by raising an NMI on the CPU on which
the target thread is currently running. Unlike stack_save_td(), it may
fail, for example if the thread is running in user mode.
This change also modifies the kern.proc.kstack sysctl to use this function,
so that stacks of running threads are shown in the output of "procstat -kk".
This is handy for debugging threads that are stuck in a busy loop.

The only operation which is prevented by the hold is the kernel stack
swapout for the faulted thread, which should be fine to allow.
Remove useless checks for NULL curproc or curproc->p_vmspace from the
