    vm: read-locked fault handling for backing objects
    
    This is almost the simplest patch which manages to avoid write locking
    for backing objects, as a result mostly fixing vm object contention
    problems.
    
    What is not fixed:
    1. cacheline ping pong due to read-locks
    2. cacheline ping pong due to pip
    3. cacheling ping pong due to object busying
    4. write locking on first object
    
    On top of it the use of VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK instead of explicitly tracking
    the state is slower multithreaded that it needs to be, done for
    simplicity for the time being.
    
    Sample lock profiling results doing -j 104 buildkernel on tmpfs:
    before:
    71446200 (rw:vmobject)
    14689706 (sx:vm map (user))
    4166251 (rw:pmap pv list)
    2799924 (spin mutex:turnstile chain)
    
    after:
    19940411 (rw:vmobject)
    8166012 (rw:pmap pv list)
    6017608 (sx:vm map (user))
    1151416 (sleep mutex:pipe mutex)
