kernel dereferenced NULL pointer returned by modlist_lookup2(); now, when this
happens, we unload the dependent module. Since the depended_files list is
sorted in dependency order, this properly propagates, unloading modules that
depend on failed ones.
From the user point of view, this prevents the kernel from panicing when

3DNow, MMX and floating point instructions in rtld-elf.
Otherwise, _rtld_bind() (and whatever it calls) could possibly clobber
function arguments that are passed in SSE/3DNow/MMX/FP registers,
usually floating point values. This can happen, for example, when clang
generates SSE code for memset() or memcpy() calls.
One symptom of this is sshd dying early on amd64 with "PRNG not seeded",
which is ultimately caused by libcrypto.so.6 calling RAND_add() with a
double parameter. That parameter is passed via %xmm0, which gets wiped
out by an SSE memset() in _rtld_bind().

The macros here for generating coprocessor 0 accessors are named like:
MIPS_RDRW32_COP0
That macro would produce mips_rd_<register>() and mips_wr_<register>()
inlines to access the specified register by name from C. The problem is that
the R and the W were swapped in the macros originally; it was meant to be named
RDWR because it generated mips_rd_* and mips_wr_* functions, but was instead
spelled RDRW, which nobody should be expected to get right by anything other
than copy and paste.
It's too many consonants in a row to keep straight anyway, so just prefer e.g.:
MIPS_RW32_COP0

and it triggered watchodg timeouts on controller that has the
hardware bug. It's not clear whether there is still another
hardware bug not mentioned in errata. This should be revisited
since this change shall make use of bounce buffers which in turn
reduces performance a lot on systems that have more than 4GB
memory.

reenabling to a bunch of macros in the Simple Executive sources to support it.
The only reason one would run an o32 kernel on Octeon would be to run o32 world,
which is better worked towards by adding o32 binary compatibility to n64 kernels
along with, eventually, supporting multilib systems so o32 binaries can run
alongside n32 and n64 ones.

This reduces the rate of panics when running 'make index' from ~0.6/hour

At a later date this locking will be removed, and for this reason, it is

universe will fail if building on a too-old current or any stable
system prior to a few days ago in weird ways (parse errors from
shell). This copes with these old systems in two ways:
(1) Works around the WARNING: issue by filtering all warnings that
sneak onto stdout.
(2) if TARGET_ARCH_${kernel} winds up being empty, then we error out
immediately with a semi-useful error message. This usually comes from
config not groking -m.
Ideally, we'd use a buildworld's config here, but that's tricky, so
I'll leave that detail to others to fix (it has to be done post make
world for the arch rather than at the top level makefile). This
should make 'make universe' usable from recent 8-stable systems
(recent == last few months or so) for building -current. They have
-m, but spewed warnings out stdout. Older systems will now at least
get a firm error early rather than a confusing error late.
