Define a new flag, UVM_FLAG_HOLE, for uvm_map to create a vm_map_entry of
a new etype, UVM_ET_HOLE, meaning it has no backend. UVM_ET_HOLE entries (which should be created as UVM_PROT_NONE and with UVM_FLAG_NOMERGE and UVM_FLAG_HOLE) are skipped in uvm_unmap_remove(), so that pmap_{k,}remove() is not called on the entry. This is intended to save time, and behave better, on pmaps with MMU holes at process exit time. ok art@, kettenis@ provided feedback as well.
