Factored out mapping of the physical page as the final generic code
after all fault-specific handling is done.
Fixed the error that zero page didn't have an owner (devzero).
Fixed the error that struct dirent did not have the record length
field as u16 as expected by userspace.
Separated vfs file as a specific file. vm file is not always a vfs file.
Updated the README
sys_open was not returning back to client, added that.
Added comments for future vfs additions.
Environment is backed by a special per-task file maintained by mm0 for each task.
This file is filled in by the env pager, by simple copying of env data into the
faulty page upon a fault. UTCB and all anon regions (stack) could use the same
scheme.
Fixed IS_ERR(x) to accept negative values that are above -1000 for errors. This
protects against false positives for pointers such as 0xE0000000.

Added reading pages from the page cache into user buffer for sys_read.
Increases stack sizes to 4 pages.
Updated README to include more details about multi-pager environments.
Headers 3 headers related to message registers and utcbs are now merged under
utcb.h in libl4. Some message register definitions used by the kernel are now
moved into kernel's glue/message.h. This avoids the duplication of same
definitions. Also the total number of mregs are now determined by arch-specific
kernel header, which is good.
Boot files and tasks are now initialised together. Theads can ask for particular
space and thread ids, if they're unused. This enables us to get predefined ids for
known tasks such as the VFS task.
Fixes to README
Other minor fixes.
Previously we had changed the method of setting the ipc tag from l4_ipc() call
argument to being passed as a message register.
- This change was not reflected in l4_ipc() signature as it still had a 3rd argument,
even though ignored.
- l4_set_sender and _set_tag had their arguments wrong way around.
- Previously 5 mrs were passed onto utcb instead of 6, relying on the fact that
l4_ipc tag argument was being passed in r3 directly, this wasnt true anymore
with new convention, but wasn't catered for.
TODO:
- MM0 shouldn't really allocate tids itself, but use ones supplied by C0.
- Sender tid shouldn't really passed by the sender task, but rather by C0. Otherwise
security can be easily breached by user tasks pretending to be other tasks. This
would also save us a message register.
Previously python hex() would put an extra 'L' after printing out the
value and this would be trimmed in readelf.py. Now it doesn't seem to
do that so the lsd of the number was trimmed. This patch fixes that.
