- Copy stable/10 (r259064) to releng/10.0 as part of the 10.0-RELEASE cycle. - Update __FreeBSD_version [1] - Set branch name to -RC1
[1] 10.0-CURRENT __FreeBSD_version value ended at '55', so start releng/10.0 at '100' so the branch is started with a value ending in zero.

- Rename VM_MEMATTR_UNCACHED to VM_MEMATTR_WEAK_UNCACHEABLE on x86 to be less ambiguous and more clearly identify what it means. This attribute is what Intel refers to as UC-, and it's only difference relative to normal UC memory is that a WC MTRR will override a UC- PAT entry causing the memory to be treated as WC, whereas a UC PAT entry will always override the MTRR. - Remove the VM_MEMATTR_UNCACHED alias from powerpc.

Add support for memory attributes (pmap_mapdev_attr() and friends) on PowerPC/AIM. This is currently stubbed out on Book-E, since I have no idea how to implement it there.

Add support to the virtual memory system for configuring machine- dependent memory attributes:
Rename vm_cache_mode_t to vm_memattr_t. The new name reflects the fact that there are machine-dependent memory attributes that have nothing to do with controlling the cache's behavior.
Introduce vm_object_set_memattr() for setting the default memory attributes that will be given to an object's pages.
Introduce and use pmap_page_{get,set}_memattr() for getting and setting a page's machine-dependent memory attributes. Add full support for these functions on amd64 and i386 and stubs for them on the other architectures. The function pmap_page_set_memattr() is also responsible for any other machine-dependent aspects of changing a page's memory attributes, such as flushing the cache or updating the direct map. The uses include kmem_alloc_contig(), vm_page_alloc(), and the device pager:
kmem_alloc_contig() can now be used to allocate kernel memory with non-default memory attributes on amd64 and i386.
vm_page_alloc() and the device pager will set the memory attributes for the real or fictitious page according to the object's default memory attributes.
Update the various pmap functions on amd64 and i386 that map pages to incorporate each page's memory attributes in the mapping.
Notes: (1) Inherent to this design are safety features that prevent the specification of inconsistent memory attributes by different mappings on amd64 and i386. In addition, the device pager provides a warning when a device driver creates a fictitious page with memory attributes that are inconsistent with the real page that the fictitious page is an alias for. (2) Storing the machine-dependent memory attributes for amd64 and i386 as a dedicated "int" in "struct md_page" represents a compromise between space efficiency and the ease of MFCing these changes to RELENG_7.

This change is the next step in implementing the cache control functionality required by video card drivers. Specifically, this change introduces vm_cache_mode_t with an appropriate VM_CACHE_DEFAULT definition on all architectures. In addition, this changes adds a vm_cache_mode_t parameter to kmem_alloc_contig() and vm_phys_alloc_contig(). These will be the interfaces for allocating mapped kernel memory and physical memory, respectively, with non-default cache modes.
