4. Split-off FDT specific low-level console functions from FDT
bus methods for the uart(4) driver. The low-level console
logic has been moved to uart_cpu_fdt.c and is used for arm,
mips & powerpc only. The FDT bus methods are shared across
all architectures.
5. Add dev/fdt/fdt_x86.c to hold the fdt_fixup_table[] and the
fdt_pic_table[] arrays. Both are empty right now.
FDT addresses are I/O ports on x86. Since the core FDT code does
not handle different address spaces, adding support for both I/O
ports and memory addresses requires some thought and discussion.
It may be better to use a compile-time option that controls this.

Replace the per-object resident and cached pages splay tree with a
path-compressed multi-digit radix trie.
Along with this, switch also the x86-specific handling of idle page
tables to using the radix trie.
This change is supposed to do the following:
- Allowing the acquisition of read locking for lookup operations of the
resident/cached pages collections as the per-vm_page_t splay iterators
are now removed.
- Increase the scalability of the operations on the page collections.
The radix trie does rely on the consumers locking to ensure atomicity of
its operations. In order to avoid deadlocks the bisection nodes are
pre-allocated in the UMA zone. This can be done safely because the
algorithm needs at maximum one new node per insert which means the
maximum number of the desired nodes is the number of available physical
frames themselves. However, not all the times a new bisection node is
really needed.
The radix trie implements path-compression because UFS indirect blocks
can lead to several objects with a very sparse trie, increasing the number
of levels to usually scan. It also helps in the nodes pre-fetching by
introducing the single node per-insert property.
This code is not generalized (yet) because of the possible loss of
performance by having much of the sizes in play configurable.
However, efforts to make this code more general and then reusable in
further different consumers might be really done.
The only KPI change is the removal of the function vm_page_splay() which
is now reaped.
The only KBI change, instead, is the removal of the left/right iterators
from struct vm_page, which are now reaped.

prefix, to indicate the intended location of the code in some future.
The versioned per-algorithm data is exported in the format of struct
vdso_timehands, which mostly repeats the content of in-kernel struct
timehands. Usermode reading of the structure can be lockless.
Compatibility export for 32bit processes on 64bit host is also
provided. Kernel also provides usermode with indication about
currently used timecounter, so that libc can fall back to syscall if
configured timecounter is unknown to usermode code.
The shared data updates are initiated both from the tc_windup(), where
a fast task is queued to do the update, and from sysctl handlers which
change timecounter. A manual override switch
kern.timecounter.fast_gettime allows to turn off the mechanism.
Only x86 architectures export the real algorithm data, and there, only
for tsc timecounter. HPET counters page could be exported as well, but
I prefer to not further glue the kernel and libc ABI there until
proper vdso-based solution is developed.

intr_bind() on x86.
This has been requested by jhb and I strongly disagree with this,
but as long as he is the x86 and interrupt subsystem maintainer I will
follow his directives.
The disagreement cames from what we should really consider as a
public KPI. IMHO, if we really need a selection between the kernel
functions, we may need an explicit protection like _KERNEL_KPI, which
defines which subset of the kernel function might really be considered
as part of the KPI (for thirdy part modules) and which not.
As long as we don't have this mechanism I just consider any possible
function as usable by thirdy part code, thus intr_bind() included.

bridges. Rather than blindly enabling the windows on all of them, only
enable the window when an MSI interrupt is enabled for a device behind
the bridge, similar to what already happens for HT PCI-PCI bridges.
To implement this, each x86 Host-PCI bridge driver has to be able to
locate it's actual backing device on bus 0. For ACPI, use the _ADR
method to find the slot and function of the device. For the non-ACPI
case, the legacy(4) driver already scans bus 0 looking for Host-PCI
bridge devices. Now it saves the slot and function of each bridge that
it finds as ivars that the Host-PCI bridge driver can then use in its
pcib_map_msi() method.
This fixes machines where non-MSI interrupts were broken by the previous
round of HT MSI changes.

kernel.
When access restrictions are added to a page table entry, we flush the
corresponding virtual address mapping from the TLB. In contrast, when
access restrictions are removed from a page table entry, we do not
flush the virtual address mapping from the TLB. This is exactly as
recommended in AMD's documentation. In effect, when access
restrictions are removed from a page table entry, AMD's MMUs will
transparently refresh a stale TLB entry. In short, this saves us from
having to perform potentially costly TLB flushes. In contrast,
Intel's MMUs are allowed to generate a spurious page fault based upon
the stale TLB entry. Usually, such spurious page faults are handled
by vm_fault() without incident. However, when we are executing
no-fault sections of the kernel, we are not allowed to execute
vm_fault(). This change introduces special-case handling for spurious
page faults that occur in no-fault sections of the kernel.
