    kernel - Fix boot issues with > 512GB of ram
    
    * Fix DMAP installation issues for kernels with > 512GB of ram.
      The page table was not being laid out properly for PML4e
      entries past the first one.
    
    * Fix early panic reporting.  Conditionalize the lapic access as the
      lapic might not exist yet.
    
    * Tested to 1TB of ram.  Theoretically DragonFlyBSD can support up
      to 32TB of ram (and slightly less than ~64TB with one #define
      change).
