stream (TCP) sockets.
It is functionally identical to generic soreceive() but has a
number stream specific optimizations:
o does only one sockbuf unlock/lock per receive independent of
the length of data to be moved into the uio compared to
soreceive() which unlocks/locks per *mbuf*.
o uses m_mbuftouio() instead of its own copy(out) variant.
o much more compact code flow as a large number of special
cases is removed.
o much improved reability.
It offers significantly reduced CPU usage and lock contention
when receiving fast TCP streams. Additional gains are obtained
when the receiving application is using SO_RCVLOWAT to batch up
some data before a read (and wakeup) is done.
This function was written by "reverse engineering" and is not
just a stripped down variant of soreceive().
It is not yet enabled by default on TCP sockets. Instead it is
commented out in the protocol initialization in tcp_usrreq.c
until more widespread testing has been done.
Testers, especially with 10GigE gear, are welcome.

which otherwise are unreliable
o setup the hack bus space tag for the GPS+RS485 uarts
o program the gpio interrupts for the uarts to be edge-rising
o force timing on the expansion bus for the uarts to be "slow"
Thanks to Chris Lang of Gateworks for these tips.
long mbuf chain into an arbitrary large uio in a single step.
It is a functional mirror image of m_uiotombuf().
This function is supposed to be used instead of hand rolled code
with the same purpose and to concentrate it into one place for
potential further optimization or hardware assistance.
chains) to pure data mbufs using m_demote(). This removes the
packet header and all m_tag information as they are not meaningful
anymore on a stream socket where mbufs are linked through m->m_next.
Strictly speaking a packet header can be only ever valid on the first
mbuf in an m_next chain.
sbcompress() was doing this already when the mbuf chain layout lent
itself to it (e.g. header splitting or merge-append), just not
consistently.
This frees resources at socket buffer append time instead of at
sbdrop_internal() time after data has been read from the socket.
For MAC the per packet information has done its duty and during
socket buffer appending the policy of the socket itself takes over.
With the append the packet boundaries disappear naturally and with
it any context that was based on it. None of the residual information
from mbuf headers in the socket buffer on stream sockets was looked at.
This change should make options VIMAGE kernel builds usable again,
to some extent at least.
Note that the size of struct vnet_inet has changed, though in
accordance with one-bump-per-day policy we didn't update the
__FreeBSD_version number, given that it has already been touched
by r194640 a few hours ago.

- remove HT_HEADER test (MT_HEADER == MT_DATA for some time now)
- be more pedantic about m_nextpkt in other than first mbuf
- update m_flags to be retained
- shrink size guards for vnet_net.
vnet_rtable does not need size guards as it is self-contained.
- remove a bunch of defines from vnet.h no longer valid.

All variables are now file local; so this further limits the global
spreading of routing related things throughout the kernel.
Add a missing function local variable in case of MPATHing.

ifa_ifwithaddr() will return a referenced ifaddr rather than a raw
ifaddr pointer, and the new wrapper will allow callers that care only
about the boolean condition to avoid having to free that reference.
