I don't want to belittle the importance of checking return values, but filled
maps could be avoided by turning on map->wrap. Perhaps we need pragmas or
something to let the user turn this on...
And BTW - the current replacement policy when wrapping is LRU. But, when
aggregating pmaps (_stp_pmap_agg), it favors data from the later cpus in the
for_each_cpu. I'm not sure of a "fair" way to correct this, except to let the
pmap->agg have more entries (MAXMAPENTRIES*NUM_CPUS).
