Sysctl OIDs were internally stored in linked lists, triggering O(n^2)
behavior when userland iterates over many of them. The slowdown is
noticeable for MIBs that have > 100 children (for example, vm.uma). But
it's unignorable for kstat.zfs when a pool has > 1000 datasets.
Convert the linked lists into RB trees. This produces a ~25x speedup
for listing kstat.zfs with 4100 datasets, and no measurable penalty for
small dataset counts.
Bump __FreeBSD_version for the KPI change.

Instead of requiring all implementations of vfs_quotactl to unbusy
the mount for Q_QUOTAON and Q_QUOTAOFF, add an "mp_busy" in/out param

whether it needed to unbusy the mount.
Also, add stbool.h to libprocstat modules which #define _KERNEL

Since mnt_flags was upgraded to 64bits there has been a quirk in
"struct export_args", since it hold a copy of mnt_flags
in ex_flags, which is an "int" (32bits).
This happens to currently work, since all the flag bits used in ex_flags are
defined in the low order 32bits. However, new export flags cannot be defined.
Also, ex_anon is a "struct xucred", which limits it to 16 additional groups.
This patch revises "struct export_args" to make ex_flags 64bits and replaces
ex_anon with ex_uid, ex_ngroups and ex_groups (which points to a
groups list, so it can be malloc'd up to NGROUPS in size.
This requires that the VFS_CHECKEXP() arguments change, so I also modified the
last "secflavors" argument to be an array pointer, so that the
secflavors could be copied in VFS_CHECKEXP() while the export entry is locked.
(Without this patch VFS_CHECKEXP() returns a pointer to the secflavors
array and then it is used after being unlocked, which is potentially
a problem if the exports entry is changed.
In practice this does not occur when mountd is run with "-S",
but I think it is worth fixing.)
This patch also deleted the vfs_oexport_conv() function, since
do_mount_update() does the conversion, as required by the old vfs_cmount()
calls.

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,

2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

Back in 1.1 of kern_sysctl.c the sysctl() routine wired the "old" userland
buffer for most sysctls (everything except kern.vnode.*). I think to prevent
issues with wiring too much memory it used a 'memlock' to serialize all
sysctl(2) invocations, meaning that only one user buffer could be wired at
a time. In 5.0 the 'memlock' was converted to an sx lock and renamed to
'sysctl lock'. However, it still only served the purpose of serializing
sysctls to avoid wiring too much memory and didn't actually protect the
sysctl tree as its name suggested. These changes expand the lock to actually
protect the tree.
Later on in 5.0, sysctl was changed to not wire buffers for requests by
default (sysctl_handle_opaque() will still wire buffers larger than a single
page, however). As a result, user buffers are no longer wired as often.
However, many sysctl handlers still wire user buffers, so it is still
desirable to serialize userland sysctl requests. Kernel sysctl requests
are allowed to run in parallel, however.
- Expose sysctl_lock()/sysctl_unlock() routines to exclusively lock the
sysctl tree for a few places outside of kern_sysctl.c that manipulate
the sysctl tree directly including the kernel linker and vfs_register().
- sysctl_register() and sysctl_unregister() require the caller to lock
the sysctl lock using sysctl_lock() and sysctl_unlock(). The rest of
the public sysctl API manage the locking internally.
- Add a locked variant of sysctl_remove_oid() for internal use so that
external uses of the API do not need to be aware of locking requirements.
- The kernel linker no longer needs Giant when manipulating the sysctl
tree.
- Add a missing break to the loop in vfs_register() so that we stop looking
at the sysctl MIB once we have changed it.
