84344f9fbf Rename the kern.vm.kmem.size tunable to the more logical vm.kmem_size. To 
assure backward compatibility (conditional on !BURN_BRIDGES), look it up
by its old name first, and log a warning (but accept the setting) if it
was found.  If both the old and new name are defined, the new name takes
precedence.

Also export vm.kmem_size as a read-only sysctl variable; I find it hard to
tune a parameter when I don't know its default value, especially when that
default value is computed at boot time.

2f0e162dc0 Fixed the markup and wording of the kern.ipc.nsfbufs tunable. 
(It does not modify NSFBUFS, but just overrides it if set.)

6087c960b5 Document the tunable kern.ipc.nsfbufs in help.common and loader.8. Small 
nearby grammar fixup that saves a line of display while in the loader
(help set tunables), but reuses the line for kern.ipc.nsfbufs.

6c40705212 s/hint.acpi.0.disable/hint.acpi.0.disabled/ 
Fix device hints entry for disabling acpi(4).
This also should fix the arbitration with apm(4) when both drivers
are enabled.

Note that your /boot/device.hints needs to be updated if you want to
stop auto-loading acpi.ko or disable acpi(4).

0889b9be41 - Add 'fwrite' and 'fseek' words for writing to and seeking on files. 
- Change the 'fopen' keyword to accept a mode parameter.  Note that this
  will break existing 4th scripts that use fopen.  Thus, the loader
  version has been bumped and loader.4th has been changed to check for a
  sufficient version on i386 and alpha.  Be sure that you either do a full
  world build or install or full build and install of sys/boot after this
  since loader.old won't work with the new 4th files and vice versa.

2f9e4e8025 Limit the amount of KVM reserved for the buffer cache and for swap-meta 
information.  The default limits only effect machines with > 1GB of ram
and can be overriden with two new kernel conf variables VM_SWZONE_SIZE_MAX
and VM_BCACHE_SIZE_MAX, or with loader variables kern.maxswzone and
kern.maxbcache.  This has the effect of leaving more KVM available for
sizing NMBCLUSTERS and 'maxusers' and should avoid tripups where a sysad
adds memory to a machine and then sees the kernel panic on boot due to
running out of KVM.

Also change the default swap-meta auto-sizing calculation to allocate half
of what it was previously allocating.  The prior defaults were way too high.
Note that we cannot afford to run out of swap-meta structures so we still
stay somewhat conservative here.
