Problem:
selwakeup required calling pfind which would cause lock order
reversals with the allproc_lock and the per-process filedesc lock.
Solution:
Instead of recording the pid of the select()'ing process into the
selinfo structure, actually record a pointer to the thread. To
avoid dereferencing a bad address all the selinfo structures that
are in use by a thread are kept in a list hung off the thread
(protected by sellock). When a selwakeup occurs the selinfo is
removed from that threads list, it is also removed on the way out
of select or poll where the thread will traverse its list removing
all the selinfos from its own list.
Problem:
Previously the PROC_LOCK was used to provide the mutual exclusion
needed to ensure proper locking, this couldn't work because there
was a single condvar used for select and poll and condvars can
only be used with a single mutex.
Solution:
Introduce a global mutex 'sellock' which is used to provide mutual
exclusion when recording events to wait on as well as performing
notification when an event occurs.
Interesting note:
schedlock is required to manipulate the per-thread TDF_SELECT
flag, however if given its own field it would not need schedlock,
also because TDF_SELECT is only manipulated under sellock one
doesn't actually use schedlock for syncronization, only to protect
against corruption.
Proc locks are no longer used in select/poll.

AIOGCAP ioctl reports software-emulated formats. It defaults to on. People
who use performance-sensitive audio software and do not want it to pick a
software-emulated audio format instead of one supported by their hardware
should turn it off.
This unbreaks isdnphone(1) on systems with PCM-only sound cards.

it currently is
* store the feeder description in the feeder structure instead of mallocing
space for it
extensively as none of my testboxes have speakers or an audio source at
present, but the chains built look correct and reading /dev/audio (ulaw,
translated from signed 16 bit little-endian) gives values within the
expected range for silence.
default format for the chosen subdevice cannot be obtained return an error
instead of returning success with an indeteterminate format selected.
note that this should never happen once the feederchain builder works for
recording.
pcm0: ac97 codec failed to reset extended mode (0, got 80)
This was due to not masking off the correct extended function bits
in the read value from the extended status reg.

no longer possible to unload the driver module while sound is playing
(which resulted in a panic).
- Fix a similar problem with the sndstat device that I found while looking
at the above.
- Append a newline character to error messages in pcm_unregister()

make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.
Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

functions where necessary.
* move the $FreeBSD$ tag in each .c file into a macro and allow the
/dev/sndstat handler to display these when set to maximum verbosity to aid
debugging.
* allow each device to register its own sndstat handler to reduce the amount
of groping sndstat must do in foreign structs.
if a device has vchans already but they are all busy, allocate another one
at open() time, up to a maximum of hw.snd.maxvchans.
when creating/destroying vchans, don't make/remove a devnode for the
first/last one as it replaces a hardchan.
