I have a one-year-old patch for that on
http://people.freebsd.org/~alex/remove-kvtop.diff
(it probably won't apply any more).

It removes all occurrencies of kvtop() and replaces it with the more
correct pmap_extract().

Given this, the ed driver compiles again on -alpha as it did when I
initially bus_spacifed the ed driver (that was the reason why I did
it:  One of my alphas only had an NE2000 NIC).

Is there a fix in -CURRENT?  I don't think so (sys/dev/ed/* still use
kvtop()).

Maybe one can rework the above patch, PLEASE?
(Or at least tell me what's wrong, so _I_ can do it).

Alex
