865. The APSIZE register has a variable-sized field of enabled bits.
To figure out how many bits a specific host bridge supports, write the
maximum width and see how many bits are set in the hardware. We then
use this mask for setting and getting the aperture size. Prior to this,
the agp(4) driver would treat an aperture size of 256 MB as 128 MB and
would not allocate enough physical memory for the GART as a result.

network layer (ether).
- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)
The value we use is still questionable for 440BX chipsets.
- When flushing the TLB just toggle the bit in question instead of writing
a magic value that could trash other unrelated bits.
vm_mtx does not recurse and is required for most low level
vm operations.
faults can not be taken without holding Giant.
Memory subsystems can now call the base page allocators safely.
Almost all atomic ops were removed as they are covered under the
vm mutex.
Alpha and ia64 now need to catch up to i386's trap handlers.
FFS and NFS have been tested, other filesystems will need minor
changes (grabbing the vm lock when twiddling page properties).

tested on Intel BX chipsets only. The other agp minidrivers are totally
untested.
The programming api is a subset of the Linux api and is only intended to
be enough for the X server to use. There is also an in-kernel api for the
use of other kernel modules such as the 3D DRI.
