If we are not going to use separate VM mapping s to keep the per-cpu
information separate any more, then can we remove the support for it from
the kernel?

examples:
i386/i386/locore.s
#ifdef SMP
/*
 * Define layout of per-cpu address space.
 * This is "constructed" in locore.s on the BSP and in mp_machdep.c
 * for each AP.  DO NOT REORDER THESE WITHOUT UPDATING THE REST!
 */
        .globl  SMP_prvspace, lapic
        .set    SMP_prvspace,(MPPTDI << PDRSHIFT)
        .set    lapic,SMP_prvspace + (NPTEPG-1) * PAGE_SIZE
#endif /* SMP */


why do all this page-table stuff..
now we can hust malloc the damned thing..
