Thanks! I'll integrate timer-related bits later this week, good catch! 
spinlock_enter and spinlock_exit are intended to be used only in
spinlock code and should be replaced by intr_disable/intr_restore there, AFAIU, 

The other bit I'm considering for merge is armv6 instruction for managing interrupts/status.

PTE sync - related part, Im not sure it's strictly required. We use WT caches for page tables
so we should be OK without implicit sync operations for them. I hope somebody 
more clueful can confirm/disprove this.
