This patch is going to help in cases like mips flavours where you
want a more granular support on MAXCPU.

sintrcnt/sintrnames which are symbols containing the size of the 2
tables.
- For amd64/i386 remove the storage of intr* stuff from assembly files.
This area can be widely improved by applying the same to other
architectures and likely finding an unified approach among them and
move the whole code to be MI. More work in this area is expected to
happen fairly soon.

be caught and recovered from. This change also the RTAS PCI driver to
work without modification as a replacement for the Grackle driver on
Grackle-based Powermacs.
smell that caused me to turn this up was due to a failed fan burning, not
a CPU (plus a healthy dose of paranoia).

instead of a PCPU field for curthread. This averts a race on SMP systems
with a high interrupt rate where the thread looking up the value of
curthread could be preempted and migrated between obtaining the PCPU
pointer and reading the value of pc_curthread, resulting in curthread being
observed to be the current thread on the thread's original CPU. This played
merry havoc with the system, in particular with mutexes. Many thanks to
jhb for helping me work this one out.
Note that Book-E is in principle susceptible to the same problem, but has
not been modified yet due to lack of Book-E hardware.

some interesting bugs (mostly on SMP systems) with atomic operations
silently failing in interrupt heavy situations, especially when using
overflow pages.

masked can end up permanently masked when a handler on another CPU clobbers
the interrupt mask register with an old copy.

Renovate and improve the AIM Open Firmware support:
- Add RTAS (Run-Time Abstraction Services) support, found on all IBM systems
and some Apple ones
- Improve support for 32-bit real mode Open Firmware systems
- Pull some more OF bits over from the AIM directory
- Fix memory detection on IBM LPARs and systems with more than one /memory
node (by andreast@)
be brought up in the order they are enumerated in the device tree (in
particular, that thread 0 on each core be brought up first). The SLIST
through which we loop to start the CPUs has all of its entries added with
SLIST_INSERT_HEAD(), which means it is in reverse order of enumeration
and so AP startup would always fail in such situations (causing a machine
check or RTAS failure). Fix this by changing the SLIST into an STAILQ,
and inserting new CPUs at the end.
