Alan Cox 4be14af9cf To date, unwiring a fictitious page has produced a panic. The reason
being that PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE() returns the wrong vm_page for fictitious
pages but unwiring uses PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE().  The resulting panic
reported an unexpected wired count.  Rather than attempting to fix
PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE(), this fix takes advantage of the properties of
fictitious pages.  Specifically, fictitious pages will never be
completely unwired.  Therefore, we can keep a fictitious page's wired
count forever set to one and thereby avoid the use of
PHYS_TO_VM_PAGE() when we know that we're working with a fictitious
page, just not which one.
