abstract the securelevel implementation details from the checking
code. The call in -CURRENT accepts a struct ucred--in -STABLE, it
will accept struct proc. This facilitates the upcoming commit of
per-jail securelevel support. The calls will also generate a
kernel printf if the calls are made with NULL ucred/proc pointers:
generally speaking, there are few instances of this, and they should
be fixed.
o Update p_candebug() to use securelevel_gt(); future updates to the
remainder of the kernel tree will be committed soon.

This works if /dev exists, or if / is read/write (nfsroot). If it is
too hard, leave it up to init -d (which will probably fail if /dev does
not exist, but there isn't much else we can do short of making a union
mount on /).
This means we get a proper /dev if you boot a 5.x kernel on a 4.x world,
which I happen to do often (the ramdisks on our install netboot servers
have 4.x userland worlds on them).

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.

- We don't need to test the console right before we vfprintf() the panicstr
message. The printing of the panic message is a fine console test by
itself and doesn't make useful messages scroll off the screen or tick
developers off in quite the same.

'struct tty' was out of sync in user and kernel due to dev_t/udev_t
mixups. This takes advantage of the fact that dev_t changes type in
userland, so it isn't too pretty.

consequently, the bounds check below becomes valid. Previously, if a
value over INT_MAX was passed in uap->nsops, the bounds check wouldn't
catch it, and the value would be used to compute copyin()'s third
argument.

me (addition of vn_rdwr_inchunks). The problem Yahoo is solving is that
if you have large process images core dumping, or you have a large number of
forked processes all core dumping at the same time, the original coredump code
would leave the vnode locked throughout. This can cause the directory vnode
to get locked up, which can cause the parent directory vnode to get locked
up, and so on all the way to the root node, locking the entire machine up
for extremely long periods of time.
This patch solves the problem in two ways. First it uses an advisory
non-blocking lock to abort multiple processes trying to core to the same
file. Second (my contribution) it chunks up the writes and uses bwillwrite()
to avoid holding the vnode locked while blocking in the buffer cache.

and I still dont know why, this was not failing on the non-kse kernel.
It certainly should have since things were using linker_kernel_file
unconditionally. This has highlighted a different problem though that
means that trying to do a kldload on a non-dynamic kernel will implode.
