lock specifications in kern/vnode_if.src. At present, this do not
distinguish between exclusive and shared locks, and the kernel is so full
of bugs in this area that running with auto-generation of assertions
enabled makes DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS totally useless for anybody that has used it
for anything prior to outputting automated assertions. Due to this, I made
vnode_if.sh only output locking assertions if you have the environment
variable DEBUG_ALL_VFS_LOCKS set to "YES". In order to actually use the
assertions, you need to also add "options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS" to your kernel
config file.

leaked memory on each unload and were limited to items referenced in
the kernel copy of vnode_if.c. Now a kernel module is free to create
it's own VOP_FOO() routines and the rest of the system will happily
deal with it, including passthrough layers like union/umap/etc.
Have VFS_SET() call a common vfs_modevent() handler rather than
inline duplicating the common code all over the place.
Have VNODEOP_SET() have the vnodeops removed at unload time (assuming a
module) so that the vop_t ** vector is reclaimed.
Slightly adjust the vop_t ** vectors so that calling slot 0 is a panic
rather than a page fault. This could happen if VOP_something() was called
without *any* handlers being present anywhere (including in vfs_default.c).
slot 1 becomes the default vector for the vnodeop table.
TODO: reclaim zones on unload (eg: nfs code)
as the value in b_vp is often not really what you want.
(and needs to be frobbed). more cleanups will follow this.

"ln /dev/console /dev/foo" or equivilent and first appeared after I fixed
the argument order of VOP_LINK. YUCK! There really needs to be a way of
specifying what vp to use in the VCALL; doing this could fix the strategy
and bwrite special-cases, too.
