Add "-T 0" to mcreboot.sh if you want to turn off time sharing. When
it's turned off, McKernel doesn't activate interval timer when the
length of per-CPU run-queue is larger than one.

Hugetlbfs file mappings are handled differently than regular files:
- pager_req_create will tell us the file is in a hugetlbfs
- allocate memory upfront, we need to fail if not enough memory
- the memory needs to be given again if another process maps the same
file
This implementation still has some hacks, in particular, the memory
needs to be freed when all mappings are done and the file has been
deleted/closed by all processes.
We cannot know when the file is closed/unlinked easily, so clean up
memory when all processes have exited.
To test, install libhugetlbfs and link a program with the additional
LDFLAGS += -B /usr/share/libhugetlbfs -Wl,--hugetlbfs-align
Then run with HUGETLB_ELFMAP=RW set, you can check this works with
HUGETLB_DEBUG=1 HUGETLB_VERBOSE=2

We had a deadlock between:
- free_process_memory_range (take lock) -> ihk_mc_pt_free_range ->
... -> remote_flush_tlb_array_cpumask -> "/* Wait for all cores */"
and
- obj_list_lookup() under fileobj_list_lock that disabled irqs
and thus never ack'd the remote flush
The rework is quite big but removes the need for the big lock,
although devobj and shmobj needed a new smaller lock to be
introduced - the new locks are used much more locally and
should not cause problems.
On the bright side, refcounting being moved to memobj level means
we could remove refcounting implemented separately in all object
types and simplifies code a bit.

One CPU could be chosen by concurrent forks because CPU selection and
runq addition are not done atomicly. So this fix makes the two steps
atomic.

Add check for start/end being larger than the range we're checking.
Fix corner case where the access_check() was done on last vm range, and
we would be looking beyond last element (null deref)
Device map with MAP_PRIVATE is copied when forking using copy_user_pte.
So the map isn't copied by those statements.

the pagers are all destroyed when linux thinks there is no process left,
but there is no synchronisation with mcexec on that and some new process
might have spawned and started using these pagers in the meantime,
leading to weird crashes because an invalid pager was used.
The reason we're cleaning up pagers when no process is left is that
mcctrl does not handle pager_req_release is the linux-side process got
killed or died before the mckernel one for some reason, so:
- move pager_req_release to a new __do_in_kernel_irq_syscall() helper
- have free_all_process_memory_range not set MF_HOST_RELEASED on the
memobj
- just in case, clean up everything like before on mcctrl shutdown
instead of when no process is left.

Heavily inspired off linux kernel's dynamic debug:
* add a /sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control file
(accessible from linux side in /sys/class/mcos/mcos0/sys/kernel/debug/dynamic_debug/control)
* read from file to list debug statements (currently limited to 4k in size)
* write to file with '[file foo ][func bar ][line [x][-[y]]] [+-]p' to change values
Side effects:
* reindented all linker scripts, there is a new __verbose section
* added string function strpbrk
