[SPARC64]: Make use of Niagara 256MB PTEs for kernel mappings.

We use a bitmap, one bit for every 256MB of memory.  If the
bit is set we can use a 256MB PTE for linear mappings, else
we have to use a 4MB PTE.

SUN4V support is there, and we can very easily add support
for Panther cpu 256MB PTEs in the future.
