UMA zone structures have two arrays at the end which are sized according
to the machine: an array of CPU count length, and an array of NUMA
domain count length. The CPU counting was wrong in the case where some
CPUs are disabled (when mp_ncpus != mp_maxid + 1), and this caused the
second array to be overlaid with the first.

Previously UMA had some false negatives in the leak report at keg
destruction time, where it only reported leaks if there were free items
in the slab layer (rather than allocated items), which notably would not
be true for single-item slabs (large items). Now, report a leak if
there are any allocated pages, and calculate and report the number of
allocated items rather than free items.

By allowing more items per slab, we can improve memory efficiency for
small allocs. If we were just to increase the bitmap size of the
slabzone, we would then waste slabzone memory. So, split slabzone into
two zones, one especially for 8-byte allocs (512 per slab). The
practical effect should be reduced memory usage for counter(9).

Some kernel subsystems, notably ZFS, will destroy UMA zones from a
shutdown eventhandler. This causes the zone to be drained. For slabs
that are mapped into KVA this can be very expensive and so it needlessly
delays the shutdown process.
Add a new state to the "booted" variable, BOOT_SHUTDOWN. Once
kern_reboot() starts invoking shutdown handlers, turn uma_zdestroy()
into a no-op, provided that the zone does not have a custom finalization
routine.

On INVARIANTS kernels, UMA has a use-after-free detection mechanism.
This mechanism previously required that all of the ctor/dtor/uminit/fini
arguments to uma_zcreate() be NULL in order to function. Now, it only
requires that uminit and fini be NULL; now, the trash ctor and dtor will
be called in addition to any supplied ctor or dtor.
Also do a little refactoring for readability of the resulting logic.
This enables use-after-free detection for more zones, and will allow for
simplification of some callers that worked around the previous
restriction (see kern_mbuf.c).

In r353734 the use of the page caches was limited to systems with a
relatively large amount of RAM per CPU. This was to mitigate some
issues reported with the system not able to keep up with memory pressure
in cases where it had been able to do so prior to the addition of the
direct free pool cache. This change re-enables those caches.
The change modifies uma_zone_set_maxcache(), which was introduced
specifically for the page cache zones. Rather than using it to limit
only the full bucket cache, have it also set uz_count_max to provide an
upper bound on the per-CPU cache size that is consistent with the number
of items requested. Remove its return value since it has no use.
Enable the page cache zones unconditionally, and limit them to 0.1% of
the domain's pages. The limit can be overridden by the
vm.pgcache_zone_max tunable as before.
Change the item size parameter passed to uma_zcache_create() to the
correct size, and stop setting UMA_ZONE_MAXBUCKET. This allows the page
cache buckets to be adaptively sized, like the rest of UMA's caches.
This also causes the initial bucket size to be small, so only systems
which benefit from large caches will get them.

The page daemon periodically invokes uma_reclaim() to reclaim cached
items from each zone when the system is under memory pressure. This
is important since the size of these caches is unbounded by default.
However it also results in bursts of high latency when allocating from
heavily used zones as threads miss in the per-CPU caches and must
access the keg in order to allocate new items.
With r340405 we maintain an estimate of each zone's usage of its
(per-NUMA domain) cache of full buckets. Start making use of this
estimate to avoid reclaiming the entire cache when under memory
pressure. In particular, introduce TRIM, DRAIN and DRAIN_CPU
verbs for uma_reclaim() and uma_zone_reclaim(). When trimming, only
items in excess of the estimate are reclaimed. Draining a zone
reclaims all of the cached full buckets (the previous behaviour of
uma_reclaim()), and may further drain the per-CPU caches in extreme
cases.
Now, when under memory pressure, the page daemon will trim zones
rather than draining them. As a result, heavily used zones do not incur
bursts of bucket cache misses following reclamation, but large, unused
caches will be reclaimed as before.
