This will allow improvements to the pmaps so that they can more easily defer expensive operations, eg tlb/cache flush, til the last possible moment.
Currently this is a no-op on most platforms, so they should see no difference.

each vm_page structure. Add a VM_MDPAGE_INIT() macro to init this
data when pages are initialized by UVM. These macros are mandatory,
but ports may #define them to nothing if they are not needed/used.
This deprecates struct pmap_physseg. As a transitional measure,
allow a port to #define PMAP_PHYSSEG so that it can continue to
use it until its pmap is converted to use VM_MDPAGE_MEMBERS.
Use all this stuff to eliminate a lot of extra work in the Alpha
pmap module (it's smaller and faster now). Changes to other pmap
modules will follow.
to <sys/types.h> and <sys/stdint.h>.
* Add a new C99 <stdint.h> header, which provides integer types of
explicit width, related limits and integer constant macros.
* Extend <inttypes.h> to provide <stdint.h> definitions and format
macros for printf() and scanf().
* Add C99 strtoimax() and strtoumax() functions.
* Use the latter within scanf().
* Add C99 %j, %t and %z printf()/scanf() conversions for
intmax_t, pointer-type and size_t arguments.
call overhead is incurred as we start sprinkling pmap_update() calls
throughout the source tree (no pmaps currently defer operations, but
we are adding the infrastructure to allow them to do so).
and use appropriately
- create more helper macros:
. cdev__xyz_init(c,n), such as cdev__ocri_init() for
/* open, close, read, ioctl */, etc.
. cdev__xRy_init(c,n), where nullop is used instead of enodev to dummy out
method `R' and the comments now read /* xxx (read) yyy */ instead
. cdev__xyz_t_init(c,n,t) - as per cdev__xyz_init, but sets d_type = t
as well
- use seltrue instead of dev_noimpl(poll,*), as (IIRC) cdevsw.d_poll should
always DTRT WRT returning a valid result. (a few devices previously
incorrectly returned ENODEV)
- use dev_noimpl(stop,enodev) instead of dev_noimpl(stop,nullop) if tty
== 0, because it doesn't matter if dev_type_stop isn't implemented in that
case, and it allows the use of the cdev__xyz_init macros. certain ports
(sparc,sparc64,x68k) used the nullop method for dev_type_stop in a few
drivers, whereas everything else uses enodev
- ensure that the comments are accurate WRT the behaviour of a given entry
