abstraction as the RAID and CAM modules, making it nearly impossible
for enough initialization to be done in time for the RAID module to
know whether to attach. On top of this, no reset was being done on
the controller on attach, in violation of the spec. Additionally,
the port enable step was being deferred to the end of the attach
process, long after it should have been done to ensure reliable
operation from the controller. Fix all of these with a few hacks
to force the "attach" and "enable" steps of the core module early
on, and ensure that a reset and port enable also happens early on.
In the future, the driver needs to be refactored to eliminate the
core module abstraction, clean up withe reset/enable steps, and
defer event messages until all of the modules are available to
recieve them.
o mark cmds/parameters to indicate they are potential arguments to a clone
operation (e.g. vlantag)
o when handling a create/clone operation do the callback on seeing the first
non-clone cmd line argument so the new device is created and can be used;
and re-setup operating state to reflect the newly created device

to protect the v_lock pointer. Removing the interlock acquisition
here allows vn_lock() to proceed without requiring the interlock
at all.
- If the lock mutated while we were sleeping on it the interlock has
been dropped. It is conceivable that the upper layer code was
relying on the interlock and LK_NOWAIT to protect the identity or
state of the vnode while acquiring the lock. In this case return
EBUSY rather than trying the new lock to prevent potential races.

Keeping the lockmgr lock valid allows us to switch the v_lock pointer
in snapshot vnodes between the embedded lockmgr lock and snapdata
lock without needing the vnode interlock to protect against races
- Keep unused snapdata structures in a list.
- Add a function to lock the devvp and allocate a snapdata to it or
acquire a new one without races. The old function was safe from
creation races because we set the mount flag when creating snapshots
and thus serializing them. However, it might have been subject to
destroying races.

This makes little difference in float precision, but in double
precision gives a speedup of about 30% on amd64 (A64 CPU) and i386
(A64). This depends on fabs[f]() being inline and efficient. The
bit fiddling (or any use of SET_HIGH_WORD(), which libm does too
much because it was best on old 32-bit machines) always causes
packing overheads and sometimes causes stalls in the packing, since
it operates on only part of a variable in the double precision case.
It apparently did cause stalls in a critical path here.
