In the future we may want to perform the switch even if the console is
currently in the graphics mode by trying to reset the video adapter first
(e.g. by executing vesa/vga bios post). That would probably require
some sort of a one-way flag as returning the control of the console back
to the interrupted application most likely would result in a mess.

This change is designed to let USB keyboard work in the panic context
with stop_scheduler_on_panic=1. Most of change consists of removing
mtx_owned() checks where they can be easily avoided. Some additional
lock cleanup is performed along the way.
A list of the smaller changes:
- newbus methods should be executed with Giant already held, just assert
this
- kbd methods called in the non-polling context should be executed with
Giant already held, just assert this
- Giant is recursive, so we should just take it where we must have it,
without redundant checks if we already have it
- thanks to recent syscons changes we don't need to go through the hoops
to detect if kernel is going to poll us; polling mode is now clearly
separated from non-polling mode
- at present the polling mode can be entered by only one thread
- document special cases in greater detail
Please note that the ukbd code and underlying USB code still lve
dangerously in the kdb context by trying to obtain various locks
including the Giant. If any of those locks are already held by the
stopped threads, then the things would blow up.
Another limitation of the ukbd driver is that it is detached before a
system enters the halt state.
With this commit we can enable kern.stop_scheduler_on_panic by default,
that should not introduce any regressions.

When SCHEDULER_STOPPED() is true the mtx_owned() call may return
an unexpected and thus meaningless result.
So, in the code paths that can be reached when SCHEDULER_STOPPED() is true
we need to protect the mtx_owned() calls with the SCHEDULER_STOPPED()
checks and ensure that an appropriate branch is taken in each case.

get a reply of EEXIST from an NFS server when a Mkdir RPC was retried,
for an NFS over UDP mount.
Upon investigation, it was found that the client was retransmitting
the Mkdir RPC request over UDP, but with a different xid. As such,
the retransmitted message would miss the Duplicate Request Cache
in the server, causing it to reply EEXIST. The kernel client side
UDP rpc code has two timers. The first one causes a retransmit using
the same xid and socket and was set to a fixed value of 3seconds.
(The default can be overridden via CLSET_RETRY_TIMEOUT.)
The second one creates a new socket and xid and should be larger
than the first. However, both NFS clients were setting the second
timer to nm_timeo ("timeout=<value>" mount argument), which defaulted to
1second, so the first timer would never time out.
This patch fixes both NFS clients so that they set the first timer
using nm_timeo and makes the second timer larger than the first one.

7.x, 8.x and 9.x with pf(4) imports: pfsync(4) should suppress CARP
preemption, while it is running its bulk update.
However, reimplement the feature in more elegant manner, that is
partially inspired by newer OpenBSD:
- Rename term "suppression" to "demotion", to match with OpenBSD.
- Keep a global demotion factor, that can be raised by several
conditions, for now these are:
- interface goes down
- carp(4) has problems with ip_output() or ip6_output()
- pfsync performs bulk update
- Unlike in OpenBSD the demotion factor isn't a counter, but
is actual value added to advskew. The adjustment values for
particular error conditions are also configurable, and their
defaults are maximum advskew value, so a single failure bumps
demotion to maximum. This is for POLA compatibility, and should
satisfy most users.
- Demotion factor is a writable sysctl, so user can do
foot shooting, if he desires to.
- Let panic() use _Noreturn and __printflike() instead of GCC-specific
attributes.
- Remove prototype from ffs_subr.c and let it include ffs_extern.h.
- Forward declare struct inode to make ffs_extern.h not depend on it.
* Right now the delay is hard coded at 10uS. This is a bit long when doing lots
of periodic i2c transactions. So create a 'udelay' parameter and initialise it
to 10. This can be tuned later.
* Add a newline after a transaction finishes, so the debugging output isn't so
horrible.
performance issues.
* Access to the GPIO bus is already locked by requesting
and releasing the bus - thus the lock isn't really needed
for each GPIO pin change.
* Don't lock and unlock the GPIO bus for -each- i2c access -
the i2c bus code is already doing this by calling the upper
layer callback to request/release the bus. This thus locks
the bus for the entirety of the transaction.
TODO:
* Further verify that everything is correctly requesting/
releasing the GPIO bus.
* Look at how to lock the GPIO pin configuration stuff,
potentially by locking/unlocking the bus at the gpiobus
layer.
