df0ba02a38 Multiboot support (contributed by Feiran "Fam" Zheng);
keep in mind that GRUB needs to be patched to read MFS for now;
use /boot/image_latest to boot the last compiled image in GRUB

a09a8d4f3e kernel: fix for vm_init that triggered assert(ptproc == newptproc)
- zero cr3 in vm_init() to avoid switch_address_space() not doing anything.

 - add vm_stop() to disable paging on shutdown.

2f892aca91 kernel fpu context switching: fix race condition
There seems to have been a broken assumption in the fpu context
restoring code.  It restores the context of the running process, without
guarantee that the current process is the one that will be scheduled.
This caused fpu saving for a different process to be triggered without
fpu hardware being enabled, causing an fpu exception in the kernel. This
practically only shows up with DEBUG_RACE on. Fix my thruby+me.

The fix
 . is to only set the fpu-in-use-by-this-process flag in the
   exception handler, and then take care of fpu restoring when
   actually returning to userspace

And the patch
 . translates fpu saving and restoring to c in arch_system.c,
   getting rid of a juicy chunk of assembly
 . makes osfxsr_feature private to arch_system.c
 . removes most of the arch dependent code from do_sigsend
