1f50ad62db Tweak r315363 slightly
I noticed after commit that kvm_dpcpu_setcpu was defined in the manpage.
Thus, the correct macro for the function reference is .Fn, not .Xr.

494deaf862 Fix manlint errors
- Add missing comma after kvm_dpcpu_setcpu .Nm macro use (multiple
  .Nm entries should be separated by commas)
- Add missing section for kvm_dpcpu_setcpu Xr.

19b5cffe0b While it isn't too late and kvm_read_zpcpu() function isn't yet used
outside libkvm(3), change its order of arguments, so that it is the
same as in kvm_read().

ccd8bad0bb A first cut at teaching libkvm how to deal with dynamic per-CPU storage
(DPCPU):

A new API, kvm_dpcpu_setcpu(3), selects the active CPU for the purposes
of DPCPU.  Calls to kvm_nlist(3) will automatically translate DPCPU
symbols and return a pointer to the current CPU's version of the data.
Consumers needing to read the same symbol on several CPUs will invoke a
series of setcpu/nlist calls, one per CPU of interest.

This addition makes it possible for tools like netstat(1) to query the
values of DPCPU variables during crashdump analysis, and is based on
similar code handling virtualized global variables.
