. no more kmalloc
. no more umaps + physcopies / abscopies
. the status register is directly readable from the drivers own
address space now, and no physcopy is needed to read it
. map+physcopy call combinations are replaced by vircopy calls
names. All system processes can now either use panic() or report() from
libutils, or redefine their own function. Assertions are done via the standard
<assert.h> functionality.
This allowed removing the p_flagarlm timer from the kernel's process table.
Furthermore, I merged p_syncalrm and p_signalrm into p_alarm_timer to save
even more space. Note that processes can no longer have both a signal and
synchronous alarm timer outstanding as of now.
