  Modified files:
    sys/ia64/ia64        pmap.c 
  Log:
  Cap the initial PV and PTE table preallocations.  Otherwise we explode
  on the Itanium2 system I have when we use up *all* of the initial 256MB
  direct mapped region before we are ready to dynamically expand it.
  
  The machine that I have has 4 cpus and a very big hole in the middle.
  This makes the bogus '(last_address - first_address) / PAGE_SIZE'
  calculations especially dangerous and caused many millions of initial
  PV/PTE's to be preallocated.
