not system processes are displayed) to preserve existing behavior. The
system idle process can be hidden via the '-z' command line argument or the
'z' key while top is running. When it is hidden, top more closely matches
the behavior of FreeBSD <= 4.x where idle time was not accounted to any
process.

kthread_add() takes the same parameters as the old kthread_create()
plus a pointer to a process structure, and adds a kernel thread
to that process.
kproc_kthread_add() takes the parameters for kthread_add,
plus a process name and a pointer to a pointer to a process instead of just
a pointer, and if the proc * is NULL, it creates the process to the
specifications required, before adding the thread to it.
All other old kthread_xxx() calls return, but act on (struct thread *)
instead of (struct proc *). One reason to change the name is so that
any old kernel modules that are lying around and expect kthread_create()
to make a process will not just accidentally link.

- p_sflag was mostly protected by PROC_LOCK rather than the PROC_SLOCK or
previously the sched_lock. These bugs have existed for some time.
- Allow swapout to try each thread in a process individually and then
swapin the whole process if any of these fail. This allows us to move
most scheduler related swap flags into td_flags.
- Keep ki_sflag for backwards compat but change all in source tools to
use the new and more correct location of P_INMEM.

Use a combination of pri_native and pri_user instead of pri_level to
guess the original realtime priority. Using pri_level here has been
wrong since 2001/02/12. Using only pri_native here would be correct
if the kernel actually initialized it reasonably. (The kernel exports
its raw td_base_priority as pri_native, but userland mostly wants a
refined base priority). Give up on waiting pri_native to work correctly
and only use it when there is nothing better (for kthreads).
This should reduce printing of bizarre pseudo-nice values. Bizarre
values are still printed if we observe a transient borrowed priority
for a kthread (transient borrowing is the main thing that makes the
raw td_base_priority almost useless in userland), or if there is a
kernel bug. One current kernel bug involves the kernel idprio thread
pagezero permanently changing its priority from PRI_MAX_IDLE (255) to
PUSER (160). Then the bizarre value "ki-6" is printed instead of
"ki31". Here "-6" is PRI_MIN_IDLE - PUSER = -64 truncated to 2
characters. We are observing a transient borrowed priority that has
become permanent due to a bug.

priority class and use this to:
- print "-" instead of a garbage value for ithreads. Print "-" instead
of the unused nice value for kthreads which are (mis)classified as
PRI_TIMESHARE. For such threads, the nice value can be set to nonzero
by root, but it is never used (at least by the 4bsd scheduler). For
ithreads, we didn't even print the unused value.
- print "i<priority>" and "r<priority>" instead of a biased "<priority>"
for idletime and realtime threads, Here <priority> is the priority
parameter to idprio/rtprio(1). Just add the prefix and remove the
bias for now. <priority> has been stored indirectly in the kernel
since 2001/02/12, and even the kernel cannot recover the original
value in all cases. Here we need to handle more cases than pri_to_rtp(),
but actually handle fewer cases, and end up printing garbage after
a thread changes its current priority while in the kernel.
