When the NFSv4.2 server does a VOP_ALLOCATE(), it needs
the operation to be done for the RPC's credential and not
td_ucred. It also needs the writing to be done synchronously.
This patch adds "ioflag" and "cred" arguments to VOP_ALLOCATE()
and modifies vop_stdallocate() to use these arguments.

rmsr.r_offset now is set to rqsr.r_offset plus the number of bytes
zeroed before hitting the end-of-file. After this change rmsr.r_offset
no longer contains the EOF when the requested operation range is
completely beyond the end-of-file. Instead in such case rmsr.r_offset is
equal to rqsr.r_offset. Callers can obtain the number of bytes zeroed
by subtracting rqsr.r_offset from rmsr.r_offset.

rmacklem@ spotted two things in the system call:
- Upon returning from a successful operation, vop_stddeallocate can
update rmsr.r_offset to a value greater than file size. This behavior,
although being harmless, can be confusing.
- The EINVAL return value for rqsr.r_offset + rqsr.r_len > OFF_MAX is
undocumented.
This commit has the following changes:
- vop_stddeallocate and shm_deallocate to bound the the affected area
further by the file size.
- The EINVAL case for rqsr.r_offset + rqsr.r_len > OFF_MAX is
documented.
- The fspacectl(2), vn_deallocate(9) and VOP_DEALLOCATE(9)'s return
len is explicitly documented the be the value 0, and the return offset
is restricted to be the smallest of off + len and current file size
suggested by kib@. This semantic allows callers to interact better
with potential file size growth after the call.

The VOP is intended to be used in situations where VFS has two
referenced locked vnodes, typically a directory vnode dvp and a vnode
vp that is linked from the directory, and at least dvp is vput(9)ed.
The child vnode can be also vput-ed, but optionally left referenced and
locked.
There, at least UFS may need to do some actions with dvp which cannot be
done while vp is also locked, so its lock might be dropped temporary.
For instance, in some cases UFS needs to sync dvp to avoid filesystem
state that is currently not handled by either kernel nor fsck. Having
such VOP provides the neccessary context for filesystem which can do
correct locking and handle potential reclamation of vp after relock.
Trivial implementation does vput(dvp) and optionally vput(vp).

Replace MAXPHYS by runtime variable maxphys. It is initialized from
MAXPHYS by default, but can be also adjusted with the tunable kern.maxphys.
Make b_pages[] array in struct buf flexible. Size b_pages[] for buffer
cache buffers exactly to atop(maxbcachebuf) (currently it is sized to
atop(MAXPHYS)), and b_pages[] for pbufs is sized to atop(maxphys) + 1.
The +1 for pbufs allow several pbuf consumers, among them vmapbuf(),
to use unaligned buffers still sized to maxphys, esp. when such
buffers come from userspace (*). Overall, we save significant amount
of otherwise wasted memory in b_pages[] for buffer cache buffers,
while bumping MAXPHYS to desired high value.
Eliminate all direct uses of the MAXPHYS constant in kernel and driver
sources, except a place which initialize maxphys. Some random (and
arguably weird) uses of MAXPHYS, e.g. in linuxolator, are converted
straight. Some drivers, which use MAXPHYS to size embeded structures,
get private MAXPHYS-like constant; their convertion is out of scope
for this work.

This obviates the need to scan the entire active list looking for vnodes

msync is handled by adding all vnodes with write count to the lazy list.
deferred inactive directly adds vnodes as it sets the VI_DEFINACT flag.
Vnodes get dequeued from the list when their hold count reaches 0.

v_type is avoidably 4 bytes while the necessary data will easily fit in 1.

vnode usecount drops to 0 all the time (e.g. for directories during path lookup).
When that happens the kernel would always lock the exclusive lock for the vnode

vinactive is very rarely needed and can be tested for without the vnode lock held.

Without this patch, when an application performed lseek(SEEK_DATA/SEEK_HOLE)
on a file in a file system that does not have its own VOP_IOCTL(), the
lseek(2) fails with errno ENOTTY. This didn't seem appropriate, since
ENOTTY is not listed as an error return by either the lseek(2) man page
nor the POSIX draft for lseek(2).
A discussion on freebsd-current@ seemed to indicate that implementing
a trivial algorithm that returns the offset argument for FIOSEEKDATA and
returns the file's size for FIOSEEKHOLE was the preferred fix.
http://docs.FreeBSD.org/cgi/mid.cgi?CAOtMX2iiQdv1+15e1N_r7V6aCx_VqAJCTP1AW+qs3Yg7sPg9wA
The Linux kernel appears to implement this trivial algorithm as well.
This patch adds a vop_stdioctl() that implements this trivial algorithm.
It returns errors consistent with vn_bmap_seekhole() and, as such, will
still return ENOTTY for non-regular files.
I have proposed a separate patch that maps errors not described by the
lseek(2) man page nor POSIX draft to EINVAL. This patch is under separate
review.
