    kernel - Rewrite the x86-64 pmap code
    
    * Use unassociated VM pages (without a VM object) for all page table pages.
    
    * Remove kptobj and pmap->pm_pteobj.
    
    * For the moment implement a Red-Black tree for pv_entry_t manipulation.
      Revamp the pindex to include all page table page levels, from terminal
      pages to the PML4 page.  The hierarchy is now arranged via the PV system.
    
    * As before, the kernel page tables only use PV entries for terminal pages.
    
    * Refactor the locking to allow blocking operations during deep scans.
      Individual PV entries are now locked and critical PMAP operations do not
      require the pmap->pm_token.  This should greatly improve threaded
      program performance.
    
    * Fix kgdb on the live kernel (pmap_extract() was not handling short-cutted
      page directory pages).
