in the radeonkms driver.
Note: In PCI mode virtual addresses on the graphics card that map to system
RAM are translated to physical addresses by the graphics card itself. In
AGP mode address translation is done by the AGP chipset so fictitious
addresses appear on the system bus. For the CPU cache management to work
correctly when the CPU accesses this memory it needs to use the same
fictitious addresses (and let the chipset translate them) instead of using
the physical addresses directly.

the queue where to enqueue pages that are going to be unwired.
- Add stronger checks to the enqueue/dequeue for the pagequeues when
adding and removing pages to them.
Of course, for unmanaged pages the queue parameter of vm_page_unwire() will
be ignored, just as the active parameter today.
This makes adding new pagequeues quicker.
This change effectively modifies the KPI. __FreeBSD_version will be,
however, bumped just when the full cache of free pages will be
evicted.

additional information, when the page is guaranteed to not belong to a
paging queue. Usually, this results in a lot of type casts which make
reasoning about the code correctness harder.
Sometimes m->object is used instead of pageq, which could cause real
and confusing bugs if non-NULL m->object is leaked. See r141955 and
r253140 for examples.
Change the pageq member into a union containing explicitly-typed
members. Use them instead of type-punning or abusing m->object in x86
pmaps, uma and vm_page_alloc_contig().
