the locking of the proc lock after the goto to done1 to avoid locking
the lock in an error case just so we can turn around and unlock it.
- Move the exec_setregs() stuff out from under the proc lock and after
the p_args stuff. This allows exec_setregs() to be able to sleep or
write things out to userland, etc. which ia64 does.

vcanrecycle to check a free vnode's availability. If it is
available, vcanrecycle returns an error code of zero and the
vnode in question locked. The getnewvnode routine then used
to call vn_start_write with the V_NOWAIT flag. If the filesystem
was suspended while taking a snapshot, the vn_start_write would
fail but getnewvnode would fail to unlock the vnode, instead
leaving it locked on the freelist. The result would be that the
vnode would be locked forever and would eventually hang the
system with a race to the root when it was attempted to recycle
it. This fix moves the vn_start_write check into vcanrecycle
where it will properly unlock the vnode if it is unavailable
for recycling due to filesystem suspension.

sched_lock. This means that we no longer access p_limit in mi_switch()
and the p_limit pointer can be protected by the proc lock.
- Remove PRS_ZOMBIE check from CPU limit test in mi_switch(). PRS_ZOMBIE
processes don't call mi_switch(), and even if they did there is no longer
the danger of p_limit being NULL (which is what the original zombie check
was added for).
- When we bump the current processes soft CPU limit in ast(), just bump the
private p_cpulimit instead of the shared rlimit. This fixes an XXX for
some value of fix. There is still a (probably benign) bug in that this
code doesn't check that the new soft limit exceeds the hard limit.

in specific situations. The owner thread must be blocked, and the
borrower can not proceed back to user space with the borrowed KSE.
The borrower will return the KSE on the next context switch where
teh owner wants it back. This removes a lot of possible
race conditions and deadlocks. It is consceivable that the
borrower should inherit the priority of the owner too.
that's another discussion and would be simple to do.
Also, as part of this, the "preallocatd spare thread" is attached to the
thread doing a syscall rather than the KSE. This removes the need to lock
the scheduler when we want to access it, as it's now "at hand".
DDB now shows a lot mor info for threaded proceses though it may need
some optimisation to squeeze it all back into 80 chars again.

Upcalls are now "bound" threads, but "KSE Lending" now means that
other completing syscalls can be completed using that KSE before the upcall
finally makes it back to the UTS. (getting threads OUT OF THE KERNEL is
one of the highest priorities in the KSE system.) The upcall when it happens
will present all the completed syscalls to the KSE for selection.

NB: But it will enable it in all kernels not having options "NO_GEOM"
Put the GEOM related options into the intended order.
Add "options NO_GEOM" to all kernel configs apart from NOTES.
In some order of controlled fashion, the NO_GEOM options will be
removed, architecture by architecture in the coming days.
There are currently three known issues which may force people to
need the NO_GEOM option:
boot0cfg/fdisk:
Tries to update the MBR while it is being used to control
slices. GEOM does not allow this as a direct operation.
SCSI floppy drives:
Appearantly the scsi-da driver return "EBUSY" if no media
is inserted. This is wrong, it should return ENXIO.
PC98:
It is unclear if GEOM correctly recognizes all variants of
PC98 disklabels. (Help Wanted! I have neither docs nor HW)
These issues are all being worked.

- Change mpo_init_foo(obj, label) and mpo_destroy_foo(obj, label) policy
entry points to mpo_init_foo_label(label) and
mpo_destroy_foo_label(label). This will permit the use of the same
entry points for holding temporary type-specific label during
internalization and externalization, as well as for caching purposes.
- Because of this, break out mpo_{init,destroy}_socket() and
mpo_{init,destroy}_mount() into seperate entry points for socket
main/peer labels and mount main/fs labels.
- Since the prototype for label initialization is the same across almost
all entry points, implement these entry points using common
implementations for Biba, MLS, and Test, reducing the number of
almost identical looking functions.
This simplifies policy implementation, as well as preparing us for the
merge of the new flexible userland API for managing labels on objects.
