- Use this to represent physical addresses in the MI vm system and in the
i386 pmap code. This also changes the paddr parameter to d_mmap_t.
- Fix printf formats to handle physical addresses >4G in the i386 memory
detection code, and due to kvtop returning vm_paddr_t instead of u_long.
Note that this is a name change only; vm_paddr_t is still the same as
vm_offset_t on all currently supported platforms.

mappings are added or removed, and doing so is machine dependent.
In addition, an implementation may require that pages mapped with pmap_kenter
have a backing vm_page_t, which is not necessarily true of all physical
pages, and so may choose to pass the vm_page_t to pmap_kenter instead of the
physical address in order to make this requirement clear.

- On receive, vm_map_lookup() needs to trigger the creation of a shadow
object. To make that happen, call vm_map_lookup() with PROT_WRITE
instead of PROT_READ in vm_pgmoveco().
- On send, a shadow object will be created by the vm_map_lookup() in
vm_fault(), but vm_page_cowfault() will delete the original page from
the backing object rather than simply letting the legacy COW mechanism
take over. In other words, the new page should be added to the shadow
object rather than replacing the old page in the backing object. (i.e.
vm_page_cowfault() should not be called in this case.) We accomplish
this by making sure fs.object == fs.first_object before calling
vm_page_cowfault() in vm_fault().

- Remove the buftimelock mutex and acquire the buf's interlock to protect
these fields instead.
- Hold the vnode interlock while locking bufs on the clean/dirty queues.
This reduces some cases from one BUF_LOCK with a LK_NOWAIT and another
BUF_LOCK with a LK_TIMEFAIL to a single lock.

- Get rid of the useless atop() / pmap_phys_address() detour. The
device mmap handlers must now give back the physical address
without atop()'ing it.
- Don't borrow the physical address of the mapping in the returned
int. Now we properly pass a vm_offset_t * and expect it to be
filled by the mmap handler when the mapping was successful. The
mmap handler must now return 0 when successful, any other value
is considered as an error. Previously, returning -1 was the only
way to fail. This change thus accidentally fixes some devices
which were bogusly returning errno constants which would have been
considered as addresses by the device pager.
- Garbage collect the poorly named pmap_phys_address() now that it's
no longer used.
- Convert all the d_mmap_t consumers to the new API.
I'm still not sure wheter we need a __FreeBSD_version bump for this,
since and we didn't guarantee API/ABI stability until 5.1-RELEASE.

The intent is to sort VOP_STRATEGY calls into those which operate
on "real" vnodes and those which operate on VCHR vnodes. For
the latter kind, the call will be changed to VOP_SPECSTRATEGY,
possibly conditionally for those places where dual-use happens.
Add a default VOP_SPECSTRATEGY method which will call the normal
VOP_STRATEGY. First time it is called it will print debugging

Add a real VOP_SPECSTRATEGY in specfs, which does what VOP_STRATEGY
does on a VCHR vnode today.
Add a new VOP_STRATEGY method in specfs to catch instances where

is now synchronized by a mutex, whereas access to user maps is still
synchronized by a lockmgr()-based lock. Why? No single type of lock,
including sx locks, meets the requirements of both types of vm map.
Sometimes we sleep while holding the lock on a user map. Thus, a
a mutex isn't appropriate. On the other hand, both lockmgr()-based
and sx locks release Giant when a thread/process blocks during
contention for a lock. This could lead to a race condition in a legacy
driver (that relies on Giant for synchronization) if it attempts to
kmem_malloc() and fails to immediately obtain the lock. Fortunately,
we never sleep while holding a system map lock.
