station exiting power save mode prepend them to the driver's
send q instead of appending them. This insures the packets
are not misordered wrt any packets already q'd for the station.
This corrects a problem noticed when using a VoIP phone talking
to an ath card in ap mode; the misordered packets caused noise.

from an URL (i.e., do it the same way as when installing
from a file). This fixes the lossage of the setuid bits.
It wasn't a problem before because GNU tar(1) implied the

for /tmp and /var. This makes the memory discs swap-backed instead
of malloc-backed. A swap-backed memory disc should not be worse
than a malloc-backed one in any scenario because it will start
touching swap only when needed. OTOH, a malloc-backed disc can
starve limited kernel resources and evenually crash the system.
Reflect the change in the rc.conf(5) manpage. Also stop telling
lies there about softupdates: it does not waste disc space, it
just can delay its freeing.

never correct as CAM has no real understanding of it, and will just immediately
retry the command. This leads to undesirable cycling of the camisr as well as
a high possibility for the command to exhaust its retries before the driver
can get around to servicing it.
The better fix, as demonstrated here, is to freeze the simq and mark the
command as needing to be tried. Then when driver can service the command,
the simq gets unfrozen. This is correct, and documented here to help reduce
the mystery. However, it also points out a shortcoming in CAM error handling
that makes writing drivers harder.

in ap mode. This is especially noticeable for realtime data going
to devices like voip phones.

For example, during a buildworld more than half of the calls do not
generate an IPI because the only TLB entry invalidated is on the calling
processor. This revision pushes down the acquisition and release of
smp_ipi_mtx into smp_tlb_shootdown() and smp_targeted_tlb_shootdown() and
instead uses sched_pin() and sched_unpin() in pmap_invalidate_*() so that
thread migration doesn't lead to a missed TLB invalidation.

EC occasionally times out and provides bogus values (3000C). This change
prevents those systems from prematurely shutting down while we work on the
underlying problem. Also, bump the sanity value to 0...200C from 0...150C.
poll(2) or kqueue(2). Previously we rejected fd's higher than FD_SETSIZE
for kevent(2), and larger than sysconf(_SC_OPEN_MAX) for poll(2). However,
the check for poll(2) wasn't really needed. open(2) and socket(2) won't
return an fd you can't pass to either poll(2) or kevent(2). This fixes
a but where gethostbyname() would fail if you had more than 1023 files
open in a process.
