This also finishes off the last of the stackgap in the kernel overall.
There is one remaining reference in some uncompiled #if 0 code to try
to simulate svr4 [gs]et_mcontext() by using the stackgap to call sysarch()
to change the LDT.  If anyone decides to actually implement that they'll
have to define a suitable KPI to do it instead (if one doesn't already
exist).
