o Introduce a notion of "not ready" mbufs in socket buffers. These
mbufs are now being populated by some I/O in background and are
referenced outside. This forces following implications:
- An mbuf which is "not ready" can't be taken out of the buffer.
- An mbuf that is behind a "not ready" in the queue neither.
- If sockbet buffer is flushed, then "not ready" mbufs shouln't be
freed.
o In struct sockbuf the sb_cc field is split into sb_ccc and sb_acc.
The sb_ccc stands for ""claimed character count", or "committed
character count". And the sb_acc is "available character count".
Consumers of socket buffer API shouldn't already access them directly,
but use sbused() and sbavail() respectively.
o Not ready mbufs are marked with M_NOTREADY, and ready but blocked ones
with M_BLOCKED.
o New field sb_fnrdy points to the first not ready mbuf, to avoid linear
search.
o New function sbready() is provided to activate certain amount of mbufs
in a socket buffer.
A special note on SCTP:
SCTP has its own sockbufs. Unfortunately, FreeBSD stack doesn't yet
allow protocol specific sockbufs. Thus, SCTP does some hacks to make
itself compatible with FreeBSD: it manages sockbufs on its own, but keeps
sb_cc updated to inform the stack of amount of data in them. The new
notion of "not ready" data isn't supported by SCTP. Instead, only a
mechanical substitute is done: s/sb_cc/sb_ccc/.
A proper solution would be to take away struct sockbuf from struct
socket and allow protocols to implement their own socket buffers, like
SCTP already does. This was discussed with rrs@.

I introduced a bug which initialized global locks
whenever the SCTP stack initialized. This was fixed in
http://svnweb.freebsd.org/changeset/base/258574
by rodrigc@. He just initialized the locks for
the default vnet. This fix reverts to the old
behaviour before r258221, which explicitly makes
sure it is only called once, because this works also on
other platforms.

X-MFC with: r258574.
In r208160, sctp_it_ctl was made a global variable, across all VNETs.
However, sctp_init() is called for every VNET that is created. This results
in the same global mutexes which are part of sctp_it_ctl being initialized. This can result
in crashes if many jails are created.
To reproduce the problem:
(1) Take a GENERIC kernel config, and add options for: VIMAGE, WITNESS,
INVARIANTS.
(2) Run this command in a loop:
jail -l -u root -c path=/ name=foo persist vnet && jexec foo ifconfig lo0 127.0.0.1/8 && jail -r foo
(see http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-current/2010-November/021280.html )
Witness will warn about the same mutex being initialized.
Fix the problem by only initializing these mutexes in the default VNET.
ABORT cause, since the user can also provide this kind of
information. So the receiver doesn't know who provided the
information.
While there: Fix a bug where the stack would send a malformed
ABORT chunk when using a send() call with SCTP_ABORT|SCT_SENDALL
flags.
MFC after: 3 days
chunks for each SCTP outgoing stream are in the send and
sent queue.
While there, improve the naming of NR-SACK related constants
