PAGE_SIZE pages (4k). An average small program uses ~6 4k pages (24k),
while the same program only uses ~20 512 byte pages (10k), so it will be
a small memory usage improvement. The large improvement will be the upcoming
ability to share page table pages between processes for shared libraries.
Remaining: should be able to give back ptp pages to the system.

this is basically copy of what nfs_kq.c does - a thread periodically
polls server checking if any of the wateched files changed
eventually this should be changed to take advantage of SMB Directory

This improves performance a lot on slow machines behind a cable modem.
Protect it with PPPOE_SERVER as a reminder that this will have to be changed
if we add PPPoE server code in the kernel one day.

alignment).
actually happens.
Add a new fcntl call that will write the minimum necessary to checkpoint
(i.e., for on-disk directory structure to be consistent, not including
updates to file data) so that the cleaner can clean segments more quickly
without sacrificing three-way commit for cleaning.
- Use _cpu_intr_suspend()/_cpu_intr_resume() in G2_LOCK/G2_UNLOCK macros
rather than _cpu_exception_suspend()/_cpu_exception_resume().
TLB miss exceptions could happen on accessing buffer, but it will never
block G2bus cycle anyway.
- Restore the previous SR.IMASK value in G2_UNLOCK().
- some misc cosmetics.
Should fix spontaneous reboots by "ping -s 8192 host" on the LAN Adapter.
