>Description:
	The  incore function in the file bufcache.c is declared as: 
struct ubuf *incore(struct uvnode *, int);

instead of:
struct ubuf *incore(struct uvnode *, daddr_t);

daddr_t is declared as uint64_t.

In architectures of 32 bits, for sizes > 1 Tbyte, produces most singificant bit activated=> negative number (at least in i386).
It produces:

1- bufcacache, dosn't cache blocks above > 1 Tbyte range.
2- For the same block, bufcache add various buffers to the cache, because incore always says that it isn't in cache (compares real address against a negative number).
3- Pontetially can corrupt information: It can contain the same block in several buffers marked with B_DELWRI (dirty blocks). What block will be written first or last?

I think that it must be pulled to previous releases. Volumes > 1 Tbyte, user buffer cache doesn't work, and there is risk of corruption.

>How-To-Repeat:
	Code review
>Fix:

I have only tested the compilation of the fix ( a world build).
