- Add a new zcreate option ZONE_VM, that sets the BUCKETCACHE zflag. This
tells uma that it should only allocate buckets out of the bucket cache, and
not from the VM. It does this by using the M_NOVM option to zalloc when
getting a new bucket. This is so that the VM doesn't recursively enter
itself while trying to allocate buckets for vm_map_entry zones. If there
are already allocated buckets when we get here we'll still use them but
otherwise we'll skip it.
- Use the ZONE_VM flag on vm map entries and pv entries on x86.

the last accessed datum is moved to the root of the splay tree.
Therefore, on lookups in which the hint resulted in O(1) access,
the splay tree still achieves O(1) access. In contrast, on lookups
in which the hint failed miserably, the splay tree achieves amortized
logarithmic complexity, resulting in dramatic improvements on vm_maps
with a large number of entries. For example, the execution time
for replaying an access log from www.cs.rice.edu against the thttpd
web server was reduced by 23.5% due to the large number of files
simultaneously mmap()ed by this server. (The machine in question has
enough memory to cache most of this workload.)
Nothing comes for free: At present, I see a 0.2% slowdown on "buildworld"
due to the overhead of maintaining the splay tree. I believe that
some or all of this can be eliminated through optimizations
to the code.

best path forward now is likely to change the lockmgr locks to simple
sleep mutexes, then see if any extra contention it generates is greater
than removed overhead of managing local locking state information,
cost of extra calls into lockmgr, etc.
Additionally, making the vm_map lock a mutex and respecting it properly
will put us much closer to not needing Giant magic in vm.
While doing this, move it earlier in the sysinit boot process so that the
VM system can use it.
After that, the system is now able to use sx locks instead of lockmgr
locks in the VM system. To accomplish this, some of the more
questionable uses of the locks (such as testing whether they are
owned or not, as well as allowing shared+exclusive recursion) are
removed, and simpler logic throughout is used so locks should also be
easier to understand.
This has been tested on my laptop for months, and has not shown any
problems on SMP systems, either, so appears quite safe. One more
user of lockmgr down, many more to go :)
