Log Message:
Until early last year, the i386 port had 256M of kvm, and the max.
amount of kvm used for buffers was set at 70%, some 188M. Then
the total amount of kvm became 1G, and the amount for buffers
thus became some 716M. This is really too much, and some
device drivers want to map quite a bit of kvm these days.

So, cap it at 384M, which gives each buffer a little over 8k (the
default FFS blocksize) physical in an 1G physram configuration.
