Uses of mallocarray(9).
The use of mallocarray(9) has rocketed the required swap to build FreeBSD.
This is likely caused by the allocation size attributes which put extra pressure
on the compiler.
Given that most of these checks are superfluous we have to choose better
where to use mallocarray(9). We still have more uses of mallocarray(9) but
hopefully this is enough to bring swap usage to a reasonable level.

Focus on code where we are doing multiplications within malloc(9). None of
these is likely to overflow, however the change is still useful as some
static checkers can benefit from the allocation attributes we use for
mallocarray.
This initial sweep only covers malloc(9) calls with M_NOWAIT. No good
reason but I started doing the changes before r327796 and at that time it
was convenient to make sure the sorrounding code could handle NULL values.
- use PCI_VENDOR and PCI_DEVICE ids from a publicly allocated range
(thanks to RedHat)
- export memory pool information through PCI registers
- improve mechanism for configuring passthrough on different hypervisors
Code is from Vincenzo Maffione as a follow up to his GSOC work.
fix build on 32 bit platforms
simplify logic in netmap_virt.h
The commands (in net/netmap.h) to configure communication with the
hypervisor may be revised soon.
At the moment they are unused so this will not be a change of API.
