Pool deals fairly well with physical memory shortage, but it doesn't deal
well (not at all) with shortages of the vm_map where the pages are mapped
(usually kmem_map).
Try to deal with it:
- group all information the backend allocator for a pool in a separate
struct. The pool will only have a pointer to that struct.
- change the pool_init API to reflect that.
- link all pools allocating from the same allocator on a linked list.
- Since an allocator is responsible to wait for physical memory it will
only fail (waitok) when it runs out of its backing vm_map, carefully
drain pools using the same allocator so that va space is freed.
(see comments in code for caveats and details).
- change pool_reclaim to return if it actually succeeded to free some
memory, use that information to make draining easier and more efficient.
- get rid of PR_URGENT, noone uses it.
