Plenty of allocation sites pass M_ZERO and sizes which are small and known

Instead, let the compiler take the advantage of it whenever possible.

Currently all the primitives are waiting for a rewrite, tidy them up in the
meantime.
Vast majority of cases pass sizes which are multiple of 8. Which means the
following rep stosb/movb has nothing to do. Turns out testing first if there
is anything to do is a big win across the board (cpus with and without ERMS,
Intel and AMD) while not pessimizing the case where there is work to do.
Sample results for zeroing 64 bytes (ops/second):
Ryzen Threadripper 1950X 91433212 -> 147265741
Intel(R) Xeon(R) CPU X5675 @ 3.07GHz 90714044 -> 121992888
bzero and bcopy are on their way out and were not modified. Nothing in the

Summary:
Added ptrace support for getting/setting the remaining part of the VSX registers
(the part that's not already covered by FPR or VR registers).
This is necessary to add support for VSX registers in debuggers.

Some of the routines were using artificially limited builtin already,
drop the explicit limit.
The use of builtins allows quite often allows the compiler to elide the call
or most zeroing to begin with. For instance, if the target object is 32 bytes
in size and gets zeroed + has 16 bytes initialized, the compiler can just
add code to zero out the rest.
Note not all the primites have asm variants and some of the existing ones
are not optimized. Maintaines are strongly encourage to take a look
(regardless of this change).
1. Remove special-casing of 0 as it just results in an extra function call.
This is clearly pessimal.
2. Drop the inline stuff. For the most part it is much better served with
__builtin_memset (coming later).
3. Move the declaration to systm.h to match other funcs.
Archs are encouraged to implement the variant for their own platform so that
this implementation can be dropped.

Default to color numbers in reverse order to CPU numbers (instead of
in the same order with white first and wrapping to dark grey), so that
the brightest bright colors are used first. Don't use dark grey at all;
replace it by dark green.
Syscons has too many compile-time options, but this one is needed in

The per-CPU ts is not initialized early, so the global kernel ts is used
early, but it ony has 1 (normal) attribute. Switch this to the per-CPU
attribute.
The difference is most visible with EARLY_AP_STARTUP.
Change to using the curcpu macro instead of PCPU_GET(cpuid) in 2 places for
the above and in 1 other place in my old code in syscons. The function-like
spelling is perhaps better for indicating that curcpu is volatile (unlike
curthread), but for CPU attributes volatility is a feature.
The SCHEDULER_STOPPED() hack breaks locking generally, and
mtx_trylock_*() especially. When mtx_trylock_*() returns nonzero,
naive code version here trusts it to have worked. But when
SCHEDULER_STOPPED() is true, mtx_trylock_*() returns 1 without doing
anything. Then mtx_unlock_*() crashes especially badly attempting to
unlock iff the error is detected, since mutex unlocking functions don't
check SCHEDULER_STOPPED().
syscons already didn't trust mtx_trylock_spin(), but it was missing the
logic to turn on sp->kdb_locked when turning off sp->mtx_locked during
panics. It also used panicstr instead of SCHEDULER_LOCKED because I
thought that panicstr was more fragile. They only differ for a window
of lines in panic(), and in broken cases where stop_cpus_hard() in panic()
didn't work.
file in /sys/conf, so was unavailable in configurations that don't use
modules, and was not testable or notable in NOTES. Its normal
configuration (not using a module) is still silently deprecated in
aout(4) by not mentioning it there.
Update i386 NOTES for COMPAT_AOUT. It is not i386-only, or even very MD.
Sort its entry better.
Finish gzip configuration (but not support) for amd64. gzip is really
gzipped aout. It is currently broken even for i386 (a call to vm fails).
amd64 has always attempted to configure and test it, but it depends on
COMPAT_AOUT (as noted). The bug that it depends on unconfigured files
was not detected since it is configured as a device. All other optional
image activators are configured properly using an option.
time, especially for SMP. If configured, it turns itself on at boot
time for calibration, so is fragile even if never otherwise used.
Both types of kernel profiling were supposed to use a global spinlock
in the SMP case. If hi-res profiling is configured (but not necessarily
used), this was supposed to be optimized by only using it when
necessary, and slightly more efficiently, in asm. But it was not done
at all for mcount entry where it is necessary. This caused crashes
in the SMP case when either type of profiling was enabled. For mcount
exit, it only caused wrong times. The times were wrongest with an
i8254 timer since using that requires exclusive access to the hardware.
The i8254 timer was too slow to use here 20 years ago and is much less
usable now, but it is the default for the SMP case since TSCs weren't
invariant when SMP was new. Do the locking in all hi-res SMP cases for
simplicity.
Calibration uses special asms, and the clobber lists in these were sort
of inverted. They contained the arg and return registers which are not
clobbered, but on amd64 they didn't contain the residue of the call-used
registers which may be clobbered (%r10 and %r11). This usually caused
hangs at boot time. This usually affected even the UP case.
kernel profiling remains broken).
memmove() was broken using ALTENTRY(). ALTENTRY() is only different from
ENTRY() in the profiling case, and its use in that case was sort of
backwards. The backwardness magically turned memmove() into memcpy()
instead of completely breaking it. Only the high resolution parts of
profiling itself were broken. Use ordinary ENTRY() for memmove().
Turn bcopy() into a tail call to memmove() to reduce complications.
This gives slightly different pessimizations and profiling lossage.
The pessimizations are minimized by not using a frame pointer() for
bcopy().
Calls to profiling functions from exception trampolines were not
relocated. This caused crashes on the first exception. Fix this using
function pointers.
Addresses of exception handlers in trampolines were not relocated. This
caused unknown offsets in the profiling data. Relocate by abusing
setidt_disp as for pmc although this is slower than necessary and
requires namespace pollution. pmc seems to be missing some relocations.
Stack traces and lots of other things in debuggers need similar relocations.
Most user addresses were misclassified as unknown kernel addresses and
then ignored. Treat all unknown addresses as user. Now only user
addresses in the kernel text range are significantly misclassified (as
known kernel addresses).
The ibrs functions didn't preserve enough registers. This is the only
recent breakage on amd64. Although these functions are written in
asm, in the profiling case they call profiling functions which are
mostly for the C ABI, so they only have to save call-used registers.
They also have to save arg and return registers in some cases and
actually save them in all cases to reduce complications. They end up
saving all registers except %ecx on i386 and %r10 and %r11 on amd64.
Saving these is only needed for 1 caller on each of amd64 and i386.
Save them there. This is slightly simpler.
Remove saving %ecx in handle_ibrs_exit on i386. Both handle_ibrs_entry
and handle_ibrs_exit use %ecx, but only the latter needed to or did
save it. But saving it there doesn't work for the profiling case.
amd64 has more automatic saving of the most common scratch registers
%rax, %rcx and %rdx (its complications for %r10 are from unusual use
of %r10 by SYSCALL). Thus profiling of handle_ibrs_exit_rs() was not
broken, and I didn't simplify the saving by moving the saving of these
registers from it to the caller.
The intent was that the default would be based on number of CPUs, but the
code disabled using taskqueue() by default.
This code is only executed when mounting a NFSv4.1 server that supports the
Flexible File layout for pNFS and, since such servers are rare, this change
shouldn't result in a POLA violation.
(The FreeBSD pNFS server is still a project and the only other one that
uses Flexible File layout is being developed by Primary Data and I don't
know if they have even shipped any to customers yet.)

It serves little purpose after r308474 and r329882. As a side
