than keeping it locked until we exit the function to optimize the case
where the lock would be dropped and later reacquired. The optimization
was broken when kevent's were moved from UFS to VFS and the knote list
lock for a vnode kevent became the lockmgr vnode lock. If one tried
to use a kqueue that contained events for a kqueue fd followed by a vnode,
then the kq global lock would end up being held when the vnode lock was
acquired which could result in sleeping with a mutex held (and subsequent
panics) if the vnode lock was contested.

notifications when LIO operations completed. These were the problems
with LIO event complete notification:
- Move all LIO/AIO event notification into one general function
so we don't have bugs in different data paths. This unification
got rid of several notification bugs one of which if kqueue was
used a SIGILL could get sent to the process.
- Change the LIO event accounting to count all AIO request that
could have been split across the fast path and daemon mode.
The prior accounting only kept track of AIO op's in that
mode and not the entire list of operations. This could cause
a bogus LIO event complete notification to occur when all of
the fast path AIO op's completed and not the AIO op's that
ended up queued for the daemon.
Suggestions from: alc
- Introducing the possibility of using locks different than mutexes
for the knlist locking. In order to do this, we add three arguments to
knlist_init() to specify the functions to use to lock, unlock and
check if the lock is owned. If these arguments are NULL, we assume
mtx_lock, mtx_unlock and mtx_owned, respectively.
- Using the vnode lock for the knlist locking, when doing kqueue operations
on a vnode. This way, we don't have to lock the vnode while holding a
mutex, in filt_vfsread.

implemented from the drivers. Include locking around filter ops, so a
module like aio will know when not to be unloaded if there are outstanding
knotes using it's filter ops.
Currently, it uses the MTX_DUPOK even though it is not always safe to
aquire duplicate locks. Witness currently doesn't support the ability
to discover if a dup lock is ok (in some cases).

Giant conditional on debug.mpsafenet in the socket soo_stat() routine,
unconditionally in vn_statfile() for VFS, and otherwise don't acquire
Giant. Accept an unlocked read in kqueue_stat(), and cryptof_stat() is
a no-op. Don't acquire Giant in fstat() system call.
Note: in fdescfs, fo_stat() is called while holding Giant due to the VFS
stack sitting on top, and therefore there will still be Giant recursion
in this case.
individual file object implementations can optionally acquire Giant if
they require it:
- soo_close(): depends on debug.mpsafenet
- pipe_close(): Giant not acquired
- kqueue_close(): Giant required
- vn_close(): Giant required
- cryptof_close(): Giant required (conservative)
Notes:
Giant is still acquired in close() even when closing MPSAFE objects
due to kqueue requiring Giant in the calling closef() code.
Microbenchmarks indicate that this removal of Giant cuts 3%-3% off
of pipe create/destroy pairs from user space with SMP compiled into
the kernel.
The cryptodev and opencrypto code appears MPSAFE, but I'm unable to
test it extensively and so have left Giant over fo_close(). It can
probably be removed given some testing and review.

The process won't report fork() or execve() and won't be able to handle

This fixes some race conditions with do_tdsignal() calling knote() while

table, acquiring the necessary locks as it works. It usually returns
two references to the new descriptor: one in the descriptor table
and one via a pointer argument.
As falloc releases the FILEDESC lock before returning, there is a
potential for a process to close the reference in the file descriptor
table before falloc's caller gets to use the file. I don't think this
can happen in practice at the moment, because Giant indirectly protects
closes.
To stop the file being completly closed in this situation, this change
makes falloc set the refcount to two when both references are returned.
This makes life easier for several of falloc's callers, because the
first thing they previously did was grab an extra reference on the
file.
