e7573e7ad7 Allow threads to atomically release rw and sx locks while waiting for an
event.  Locking primitives that support this (mtx, rw, and sx) now each
include their own foo_sleep() routine.
- Rename msleep() to _sleep() and change it's 'struct mtx' object to a
  'struct lock_object' pointer.  _sleep() uses the recently added
  lc_unlock() and lc_lock() function pointers for the lock class of the
  specified lock to release the lock while the thread is suspended.
- Add wrappers around _sleep() for mutexes (mtx_sleep()), rw locks
  (rw_sleep()), and sx locks (sx_sleep()).  msleep() still exists and
  is now identical to mtx_sleep(), but it is deprecated.
- Rename SLEEPQ_MSLEEP to SLEEPQ_SLEEP.
- Rewrite much of sleep.9 to not be msleep(9) centric.
- Flesh out the 'RETURN VALUES' section in sleep.9 and add an 'ERRORS'
  section.
- Add __nonnull(1) to _sleep() and msleep_spin() so that the compiler will
  warn if you try to pass a NULL wait channel.  The functions already have
  a KASSERT to that effect.

b388e223f2 Slight changes to reflect some of the changes in -current.
mi_switch(9) is still wildly innacurate. I suggest that every kernel
developer takes 20 minutes a day for the next few days and updates one or
two of his favourite chapter 9 man pages as they are now WAY out of date
in general. I will add a couple of KSE related pages soon.

c4d9468ea0 mdoc(7) police:
Avoid using parenthesis enclosure macros (.Pq and .Po/.Pc) with plain text.
Not only this slows down the mdoc(7) processing significantly, but it also
has an undesired (in this case) effect of disabling hyphenation within the
entire enclosed block.

8861ba5bc8 Catch up to the new way that the scheduling code works since the original
SMPng commit.  Also document the new cpu_throw function (currently only
on i386).

1111b49c35 Remove single-space hard sentence breaks. These degrade the quality
of the typeset output, tend to make diffs harder to read and provide
bad examples for new-comers to mdoc.

5bf6ab8369 Add $Id$, to make it simpler for members of the translation teams to
track.

The $Id$ line is normally at the bottom of the main comment block in the
man page, separated from the rest of the manpage by an empty comment,
like so;

     .\"    $Id$
     .\"

If the immediately preceding comment is a @(#) format ID marker than the
the $Id$ will line up underneath it with no intervening blank lines.
Otherwise, an additional blank line is inserted.
