This branch was a major cleanup and rototill of many of the various OEA
cpu based PPC ports that focused on sharing as much code as possible
between the various ports to eliminate near-identical copies of files in
every tree. Additionally there is a new PIC system that unifies the
interface to interrupt code for all different OEA ppc arches. The work
for this branch was done by a variety of people, too long to list here.
TODO:
bebox still needs work to complete the transition to -renovation.
ofppc still needs a bunch of work, which I will be looking at.
ev64260 still needs to be renovated
amigappc was not attempted.
NOTES:
pmppc was removed as an arch, and moved to a evbppc target.
This allows us to convert aucom to just another com attachment, and cleanup
some code in the com_arbus.c.
Additionally, we use a common com_cleanup routine rather than having a
zillion copies of it in the attachment points.
This has been tested on a number architectures, and it has been shown to get
close to comparable performance when COM_REGMAP is defined, and comparable
when it is not defined.

and others to avoid providing PCI I/O space at address 0.
Iyonix, however, needs to provide PCI I/O space at 0.
The others require I/O space to be offset in part due to a bug
work-around in wm(4) which requires that I/O space access be used
to reset the controllers. If I/O space is mapped at zero, the card
claims, but ignores, the transactions, and the controller doesn't
get reset properly and can't then be used.
- don't use managed mappings/backing objects for wired memory allocations.
save some resources like pv_entry. also fix (most of) PR/27030.
- simplify kernel memory management API.
- simplify pmap bootstrap of some ports.
- some related cleanups.
with a more generic "devmap" structure that can also handle mappings
made with large and small pages. Add new pmap routines to enter these
mappings during bootstrap (and "remember" the devmap), and routines to
look up the static mappings once the kernel is running.
Also in the ARM32_PMAP_NEW case, reclaim the USPACE-bytes of wasted space
at the top of the user address that hasn't been needed for a very very
long time.
