This patch should convert a (simple and 100% shared between amd64 and
i386 header) under the x86 sub-tree. Please note that in this patch I
"svn cp" the file from sys/amd64/include/mptable.h into
sys/x86/include/mptable.h:
http://www.freebsd.org/~attilio/headers-x86.diff

This is someway a POC, that I really want to get in. The idea is
simple and someway follows the pc98 case (even if not entirely): the
files under machine/include/* became just mere stubs for x86/include/*
contents and redirect there.
This won't particulary help reducing the number of available files,
but generally removing verbatim and would also be the way to go for
handling MFCs.
If you find this is the right way I'll commit the fix and start moving
other files as time permits.

Thanks,
Attilio
