    More trimming of the page fault path.
    
    Permissions are passed around in a single int rather than one bit per
    int.  The permission values are copied from libc so that they can be
    passed to mmap and mprotect without any further conversion.
    
    The register sets used by do_syscall_stub and copy_context_skas0 are
    initialized once, at boot time, rather than once per call.
    
    wait_stub_done checks whether it is getting the signals it expects by
    comparing the wait status to a mask containing bits for the signals of
    interest rather than comparing individually to the signal numbers.  It
    also has one check for a wait failure instead of two.  The caller is
    expected to do the initial continue of the stub.  This gets rid of an
    argument and some logic.  The fname argument is gone, as that can be
    had from a stack trace.
    
    user_signal() is collapsed into userspace() as it is basically one or
    two lines of code afterwards.
    
    The physical memory remapping stuff is gone, as it is unused.
    
    flush_tlb_page is inlined.
