SPDX License Identifiers are a more compact / standardized
way of representing file license information.

(...and ASSERT_NOT_REACHED => VERIFY_NOT_REACHED)
Since all of these checks are done in release builds as well,
let's rename them to VERIFY to prevent confusion, as everyone is
used to assertions being compiled out in release.
We can introduce a new ASSERT macro that is specifically for debug
checks, but I'm doing this wholesale conversion first since we've
accumulated thousands of these already, and it's not immediately
obvious which ones are suitable for ASSERT.
A 16-bit refcount is just begging for trouble right nowl.
A 32-bit refcount will be begging for trouble later down the line,
so we'll have to revisit this eventually. :^)
As suggested by Joshua, this commit adds the 2-clause BSD license as a
comment block to the top of every source file.
For the first pass, I've just added myself for simplicity. I encourage
everyone to add themselves as copyright holders of any file they've
added or modified in some significant way. If I've added myself in
error somewhere, feel free to replace it with the appropriate copyright
holder instead.
Going forward, all new source files should include a license header.
This makes no functional difference, but it makes it clear that
MemoryManager and PhysicalRegion take over the actual physical
page represented by this PhysicalPage instance.
Pages created with PhysicalPage::create_eternal() should *not* be
returnable to the freelist; and pages created with the regular
PhysicalPage::create() should be; not the other way around.
This significantly reduces the pressure on the kernel heap when
allocating a lot of pages.
Previously at about 250MB allocated, the free page list would outgrow
the kernel's heap. Given that there is no longer a page list, this does
not happen.
The next barrier will be the kernel memory used by the page records for
in-use memory. This kicks in at about 1GB.
