years for head. However, it is continuously misused as the mpsafe argument
for callout_init(9). Deprecate the flag and clean up callout_init() calls
to make them more consistent.

skip 10, rather than 9, frames. This appears to work quite well in
practice on the BeagleBone Black, so remove a comment about the value
being bogus and replace it with a slightly less negative one. However,
the number of frames to skip is quite sensitive to details of the timer
and interrupt handling paths, so this is necessarily fragile -- but no
more so than on x86.

skip using the DTrace 'profile' provider on ARM. This causes stack traces
to skip various driver-and callout-related things as they do on x86, where
the likewise arbitrary values are '6' (32-bit) and '10' (64-bit) for
similar sorts of reasons.

In the old days callout(9) had 1 tick precision and that was inadequate
for some uses, e.g. DTrace profile module, so we had to emulate cyclic
API and behavior. Now we can directly use callout(9) in the very few
places where cyclic was used.

There is one known issue: Some probes will display an error message along the
lines of: "Invalid address (0)"
I tested this with both a simple dtrace probe and dtruss on a few different
binaries on 32-bit. I only compiled 64-bit, did not run it, but I don't expect
problems without the modules loaded. Volunteers are welcome.
