Descriptions are specific to drivers and we don't change drivers on attached
devices. This fixes a few places where we were not clearing the description
when detaching a driver (e.g. with device_attach() failed). While here, fix
a few other nits:
- Remove spurious call to remove a device's driver from
devclass_driver_deleted(). device_detach() removes it already.
- Fix a typo.
- In sched_pickcpu() be more careful taking previous CPU on SMT systems.
Do it only if all other logical CPUs of that physical one are idle to avoid
extra resource sharing.
- In sched_pickcpu() change general logic of CPU selection. First
look for idle CPU, sharing last level cache with previously used one,
skipping SMT CPU groups. If none found, search all CPUs for the least loaded
one, where the thread with its priority can run now. If none found, search
just for the least loaded CPU.
- Make cpu_search() compare lowest/highest CPU load when comparing CPU
groups with equal load. That allows to differentiate 1+1 and 2+0 loads.
- Make cpu_search() to prefer specified (previous) CPU or group if load
is equal. This improves cache affinity for more complicated topologies.
- Randomize CPU selection if above factors are equal. Previous code tend
to prefer CPUs with lower IDs, causing unneeded collisions.
- Rework periodic balancer in sched_balance_group(). With cpu_search()
more intelligent now, make balansing process flat, removing recursion
over the topology tree. That fixes double swap problem and makes load
distribution more even and predictable.
All together this gives 10-15% performance improvement in many tests on
CPUs with SMT, such as Core i7, for number of threads is less then number
of logical CPUs. In some tests it also gives positive effect to systems
without SMT.

entries on one client when a directory was renamed on another client. The
root cause for the stale entry being trusted is that each per-vnode nfsnode
structure has a single 'n_ctime' timestamp used to validate positive name
cache entries. However, if there are multiple entries for a single vnode,
they all share a single timestamp. To fix this, extend the name cache
to allow filesystems to optionally store a timestamp value in each name
cache entry. The NFS clients now fetch the timestamp associated with
each name cache entry and use that to validate cache hits instead of the
timestamps previously stored in the nfsnode. Another part of the fix is
that the NFS clients now use timestamps from the post-op attributes of
RPCs when adding name cache entries rather than pulling the timestamps out
of the file's attribute cache. The latter is subject to races with other
lookups updating the attribute cache concurrently. Some more details:
- Add a variant of nfsm_postop_attr() to the old NFS client that can return
a vattr structure with a copy of the post-op attributes.
- Handle lookups of "." as a special case in the NFS clients since the name
cache does not store name cache entries for ".", so we cannot get a
useful timestamp. It didn't really make much sense to recheck the
attributes on the the directory to validate the namecache hit for "."
anyway.
- ABI compat shims for the name cache routines are present in this commit
so that it is safe to MFC.

operation on POSIX shared memory objects and tmpfs. Previously, neither of
these modules correctly handled the case in which the new size of the object
or file was not a multiple of the page size. Specifically, they did not
handle partial page truncation of data stored on swap. As a result, stale
data might later be returned to an application.
Interestingly, a data inconsistency was less likely to occur under tmpfs
than POSIX shared memory objects. The reason being that a different mistake
by the tmpfs truncation operation helped avoid a data inconsistency. If the
data was still resident in memory in a PG_CACHED page, then the tmpfs
truncation operation would reactivate that page, zero the truncated portion,
and leave the page pinned in memory. More precisely, the benevolent error
was that the truncation operation didn't add the reactivated page to any of
the paging queues, effectively pinning the page. This page would remain
pinned until the file was destroyed or the page was read or written. With
this change, the page is now added to the inactive queue.
