tables which affect demotion. The last last-level page table under 2M mappings below KERNend was only partially initialized. When that page was used as the hardware page table for demotion of the 2M mapping, the result was not consistent. Since pmap_demote_pde() is switched to use PG_PROMOTED as the test for the validity of the saved last level page table page, we can keep page table pages zero-initialized instead. Demotion would fill them as needed. Only map the created page tables beyond KERNend, there is no need to pre-promote PTmap after KERNend, because the extra mapping is not used. Only round up *firstaddr to 2M boundary when it is below rounded KERNend. Sometimes the allocpages() calls advance *firstaddr past the end of the last 2MB page mapping. In that case, this conditional avoids wasting an average of 1MB of physical memory. Update comments to explain action in more clean and direct language.

FreeBSD
FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
