I made patch for that,
http://www.sat.t.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~simokawa/amd64/kva.patch.txt
(include /dev/kmem fix for direct map and debug code)

I failed to link kernel for 2GB+ KVA space (set KPDPI to (NPDPEPG-4)).
Linker produces the following errors:

locore.o: In function `btext':
/usr/obj/amd64/export/home/src/sys/FireWire/{standard input}:53: relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32S .bss
cam.o: In function `cam_fetch_status_entry':/export/home/src/sys/cam/cam.c:187:relocation truncated to fit: R_X86_64_32S .text
.....

Do you have any idea?
