It would previously call into some unfinished Solaris compatibility code and
return without actually calling panic(9). The compatibility code is
unneeded, however, so just remove it and have dtrace_panic() call vpanic(9)
directly.

It's redundant at the moment since it can be obtained from the trapframe
on the architectures where DTrace is supported, but this won't be the case
with ARM.
Summary:
Fix the stack tracing for dtrace/powerpc by using the trapexit/asttrapexit
return address sentinels instead of checking within the kernel address space.
As part of this, I had to add new inline functions. FBT traces the kernel, so
we have to have special case handling for this, since a trap will create a full
new trap frame, and there's no way to pass around the 'real' stack. I handle
this by special-casing 'aframes == 0' with the trap frame. If aframes counts
out to the trap frame, then assume we're looking for the full kernel trap frame,
so switch to the real stack pointer.

Relnotes: Yes
the upstream implementation and helps ensure that a trap induced by tracing
fbt::trap:entry is handled without recursively generating another trap.
This makes it possible to run most (but not all) of the DTrace tests under
common/safety/ without triggering a kernel panic.

much of which is not necessary for PowerPC.
The FBT module can likely be factored into 3 separate files: common,
intel, and powerpc, rather than duplicating most of the code between
the x86 and PowerPC flavors.
All DTrace modules for PowerPC will be MFC'd together once Fasttrap is
completed.
There is one known issue: Some probes will display an error message along the
lines of: "Invalid address (0)"
I tested this with both a simple dtrace probe and dtruss on a few different
binaries on 32-bit. I only compiled 64-bit, did not run it, but I don't expect
problems without the modules loaded. Volunteers are welcome.
