As an optimization to the machine-independent layer, change the machine- dependent pmap_ts_referenced() so that it updates the page's dirty field if a modified bit is found while counting reference bits. This opportunistic update can be performed at low cost and can eliminate the need for some future calls to pmap_is_modified() by the machine- independent layer. Replace the number 4 in sparc64's pmap_ts_referenced() by PMAP_TS_REFERENCED_MAX, like we've done elsewhere, e.g., amd64.
