Replace ARC4 with SHA2-512.
Change lock-structure encoding to use random ordering rather for obscurity.
Encrypt lock-structure with AES/256 instead of AES/128.
Change kkey derivation to be MD5 hash based.
Watch for malloc(M_NOWAIT) failures and ditch our cache when they happen.
Remove clause 3 of the license with NAI Labs consent.

This code has still not been stared at for 10 years by a gang of
hard-core cryptographers. Discretion advised.
NB: These changes result in the on-disk format changing: dump/restore needed.

skip those. This handles the Protective MBR (PMBR) which consists
of a single partition of type 0xEE that covers the whole disk and
as such protects the GPT partitioning. We allow other partitions to
be present besides partitions of type 0xEE and as such interpret
partition type 0xEE as a "hands-off" partition only.
While here, fix g_mbrext_dumpconf to test if indent is NULL and
dump the data in a form that libdisk can grok. Change the logic
in g_mbr_dumpconf to match that of g_mbrext_dumpconf. This does
not change the output, but prevents a NULL-pointer dereference
when indent == NULL && pp == NULL.
expected under -current. This is a problem for GEOM because the up/down
threads cannot sleep waiting for memory to become free. The reason they
cannot sleep is that paging things out to disk may be the only way we can
clear up some RAM. Nice catch-22 there.
Implement a rudimentary ENOMEM recovery strategy: If an I/O request
fails with an error code of ENOMEM, schedule it for a retry, and
tell the down-thread to sleep hz/10 to get other parts of the system
a chance to free up some memory, in particular the up-path in GEOM.
All caches should probably start to monitor malloc(9) failures using the new
malloc_last_fail() function, and release when it indicates congestion.

I have the "correct" version is messed up with conflicts.

don't take the detour over the I/O path to discover them using getattr(),
we can just pick them out directly.
Do note though, that for now they are only valid after the first open
of the underlying disk device due compatibility with the old disk_create()
API. This will change in the future so they will always be valid.

This is an encryption module designed for to secure denial of access
to the contents of "cold disks" with or without destruction activation.
Major features:
* Based on AES, MD5 and ARC4 algorithms.
* Four cryptographic barriers:
1) Pass-phrase encrypts the master key.
2) Pass-phrase + Lock data locates master key.
3) 128 bit key derived from 2048 bit master key protects sector key.
3) 128 bit random single-use sector keys protect data payload.
* Up to four different changeable pass-phrases.
* Blackening feature for provable destruction of master key material.
* Isotropic disk contents offers no information about sector contents.
* Configurable destination sector range allows steganographic deployment.
This commit adds the kernel part, separate commits will follow for the
userland utility and documentation.
