See mvme68k's machdep.c. In mvme68k_init(), UVM is told to put onboard RAM
on the highest priority free list (0). VMEbus RAM is given priority 1.

In uvm/uvm_page.c, the default allocation strategy (UVM_PGA_STRAT_NORMAL)
for uvm_pagealloc_strat() is to allocate pages from the highest priority
freelist first.

HTH.
