- Add sx_xholder member to sx struct which is used for INVARIANTS-enabled
assertions. It indicates the thread that presently owns the xlock.
- Add some assertions to the sx lock code that will detect the fatal
API abuse:
xlock --> xlock
xlock --> slock
which now works thanks to sx_xholder.
Notice that the remaining two problematic cases:
slock --> xlock
slock --> slock (a little less problematic, but still recursion)
will need to be handled by witness eventually, as they are more
involved.

supported architectures such as the alpha. This allows us to save
on kernel virtual address space, TLB entries, and (on the ia64) VHPT
entries. pmap_map() now modifies the passed in virtual address on
architectures that do not support direct-mapped segments to point to
the next available virtual address. It also returns the actual
address that the request was mapped to.
- On the IA64 don't use a special zone of PV entries needed for early
calls to pmap_kenter() during pmap_init(). This gets us in trouble
because we end up trying to use the zone allocator before it is
initialized. Instead, with the pmap_map() change, the number of needed
PV entries is small enough that we can get by with a static pool that is
used until pmap_init() is complete.

The reason is: mouse cursor goes into hide/visible loop while text cursor even

palette. As a result, the colors on the video console can look rather
weird. For example, sysinstall on the alpha has a read background. We
can work around this partially by remapping the colors used by syscons for
the ANSI color escape sequences. Note that screen savers and anything that
sets the colors explicitly will still get incorrect colors, but programs
such as sysinstall will now use the correct colors. A more correct fix
would be to actually fix the VGA palette on boot by either swapping all
the red and blue attributes or by hardcoding a standard palette and
overwriting the entire palette.

This lets us run programs containing newer (eg bwx) instructions
on older (eg EV5 and less) machines. One win is that we can
now run Acrobat4 on EV4s and EV5s.
