Well, there is one way you can tell if these changes actually cause the
problem. The extra arguments to pmap_enter() make no difference if you
make pmap_enter() ignore them... so you could certainly #if 0 out the
part that pays attention to access_type, build a kernel, and try it...
However, since you updated your userland and the problem no longer
occurs, I guess we'll never know. *shrug*
