kernel.
When access restrictions are added to a page table entry, we flush the
corresponding virtual address mapping from the TLB. In contrast, when
access restrictions are removed from a page table entry, we do not
flush the virtual address mapping from the TLB. This is exactly as
recommended in AMD's documentation. In effect, when access
restrictions are removed from a page table entry, AMD's MMUs will
transparently refresh a stale TLB entry. In short, this saves us from
having to perform potentially costly TLB flushes. In contrast,
Intel's MMUs are allowed to generate a spurious page fault based upon
the stale TLB entry. Usually, such spurious page faults are handled
by vm_fault() without incident. However, when we are executing
no-fault sections of the kernel, we are not allowed to execute
vm_fault(). This change introduces special-case handling for spurious
page faults that occur in no-fault sections of the kernel.

along with functions, SYSCTLs and tunables that are not used with
ATA_CAM in #ifndef ATA_CAM, similar to the existing #ifdef'ed ATA_CAM
code for the other way around. This makes it easier to understand
which parts of ata(4) actually are used in the new world order and
to later on remove the !ATA_CAM bits. It also makes it obvious that
there is something fishy with the C-bus front-end as well as in the
ATP850 support, as these used ATA_LOCKING which is defunct in the
ATA_CAM case. When fixing the former, ATA_LOCKING probably needs to
be brought back in some form or other.

As of FreeBSD 8, this driver should not be used. Applications that use
posix_openpt(2) and openpty(3) use the pts(4) that is built into the
kernel unconditionally. If it turns out high profile depend on the
pty(4) module anyway, I'd rather get those fixed. So please report any
issues to me.
The pty(4) module is still available as a kernel module of course, so a
simple `kldload pty' can be used to run old-style pseudo-terminals.

because there was a fixed amount of kernel virtual address space
reserved for pv entries at boot time. However, since that change pv
entries are accessed through the direct map, and so there is no limit
imposed by a fixed amount of kernel virtual address space.
Fix a couple of nearby style issues.

is queued to the hardware.
Because multiple concurrent paths can execute ath_start(), multiple
concurrent paths can push frames into the software/hardware TX queue
and since preemption/interrupting can occur, there's the possibility
that a gap in time will occur between allocating the sequence number
and queuing it to the hardware.
Because of this, it's possible that a thread will have allocated a
sequence number and then be preempted by another thread doing the same.
If the second thread sneaks the frame into the BAW, the (earlier) sequence
number of the first frame will be now outside the BAW and will result
in the frame being constantly re-added to the tail of the queue.
There it will live until the sequence numbers cycle around again.
This also creates a hole in the RX BAW tracking which can also cause
issues.
This patch delays the sequence number allocation to occur only just before
the frame is going to be added to the BAW. I've been wanting to do this
anyway as part of a general code tidyup but I've not gotten around to it.
This fixes the PR.
However, it still makes it quite difficult to try and ensure in-order
queuing and dequeuing of frames. Since multiple copies of ath_start()
can be run at the same time (eg one TXing process thread, one TX completion
task/one RX task) the driver may end up having frames dequeued and pushed
into the hardware slightly/occasionally out of order.
And, to make matters more annoying, net80211 may have the same behaviour -
in the non-aggregation case, the TX code allocates sequence numbers
before it's thrown to the driver. I'll open another PR to investigate
this and potentially introduce some kind of final-pass TX serialisation
before frames are thrown to the hardware. It's also very likely worthwhile
adding some debugging code into ath(4) and net80211 to catch when/if this
does occur.
