3b0299dd65 bootloader: pass memory map to kernel
Previously, the bootloader would only provide a single memory range.
At least on VirtualBox, this memory range includes the ACPI tables,
which the kernel then happily overwrites when executing VM.  Much of
the infrastructure to use a fullblown memory map is already in place;
this patch adds the last (and strangely missing) bit of generating
the memory map in a multiboot-compatible way.

It should be noted that both the bootloader and the kernel actually
violate the multiboot specification by not packing the structure for
the memory ranges.  This is a NetBSD bug, but it is also a nonissue
for (our) practical purposes.  It can be fixed without changing the
code added in this patch.

84d9c625bf Synchronize on NetBSD-CVS (2013/12/1 12:00:00 UTC)
- Fix for possible unset uid/gid in toproto
 - Fix for default mtree style
 - Update libelf
 - Importing libexecinfo
 - Resynchronize GCC, mpc, gmp, mpfr
 - build.sh: Replace params with show-params.
     This has been done as the make target has been renamed in the same
     way, while a new target named params has been added. This new
     target generates a file containing all the parameters, instead of
     printing it on the console.
 - Update test48 with new etc/services (Fix by Ben Gras <ben@minix3.org)
     get getservbyport() out of the inner loop

adb5107e26 Cosmetic boot fix.
The NetBSD boot loader loads automatically the kernel module appropriate
for the detected root file system; it is preset at "ffs".  The MINIX3fs
support does not reset the underlying global variable, since there are
no use for this on MINIX.  As a result, the boot loader searches for
/ffs.kmod, and issues two warnings about "module failure to open/load."
