The answer is:
"Those page attributes have been moved from pv_flags in pv_entry
(which belonged to pmap_physseg) to pvh_attr in vm_page_md in rev 1.163."
(we could track it by checking when pvh_attr was in vmparam.h)
In that revision my intention was to just remove gcc extention
(it was suggetted by Jason to move stuff from physseg to vm_page),
but anyway I'll remove that code block and rename those page attributes
to PGA_FOO like alpha for future readers.
