Matthew Dillon faa273d5c2 Rip out PQ_ZERO queue. PQ_ZERO functionality is now combined in with
PQ_FREE.  There is little operational difference other then the kernel
    being a few kilobytes smaller and the code being more readable.

    * vm_page_select_free() has been *greatly* simplified.
    * The PQ_ZERO page queue and supporting structures have been removed
    * vm_page_zero_idle() revamped (see below)

    PG_ZERO setting and clearing has been migrated from vm_page_alloc()
    to vm_page_free[_zero]() and will eventually be guarenteed to remain
    tracked throughout a page's life ( if it isn't already ).

    When a page is freed, PG_ZERO pages are appended to the appropriate
    tailq in the PQ_FREE queue while non-PG_ZERO pages are prepended.
    When locating a new free page, PG_ZERO selection operates from within
    vm_page_list_find() ( get page from end of queue instead of beginning
    of queue ) and then only occurs in the nominal critical path case.  If
    the nominal case misses, both normal and zero-page allocation devolves
    into the same _vm_page_list_find() select code without any specific
    zero-page optimizations.

    Additionally, vm_page_zero_idle() has been revamped.  Hysteresis has been
    added and zero-page tracking adjusted to conform with the other changes.
    Currently hysteresis is set at 1/3 (lo) and 1/2 (hi) the number of free
    pages.  We may wish to increase both parameters as time permits.  The
    hysteresis is designed to avoid silly zeroing in borderline allocation/free
    situations.
