lock specifications in kern/vnode_if.src. At present, this do not
distinguish between exclusive and shared locks, and the kernel is so full
of bugs in this area that running with auto-generation of assertions
enabled makes DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS totally useless for anybody that has used it
for anything prior to outputting automated assertions. Due to this, I made
vnode_if.sh only output locking assertions if you have the environment
variable DEBUG_ALL_VFS_LOCKS set to "YES". In order to actually use the
assertions, you need to also add "options DEBUG_VFS_LOCKS" to your kernel
config file.

A note about imprisoned processes (see jail(2)):
These variables are copy-on-write (as suggested by phk). This means that
imprisoned processes will use the system wide value unless it is written/set
by the process. From that moment on, a copy local to the prison will be
used.
A note about the implementation:
I choose to add a single pointer to struct prison, because I didn't like the
idea of changing struct prison every time I come up with a new variable. As
a side effect, the extra storage is only needed when a variable is set from
within the prison. This also minimizes kernel bloat when the Linuxulator is
not used; both compiled in or as a module.

variable "vfs.timestamp_precision" can be used to enable higher
levels of precision:
0 = seconds only; nanoseconds zeroed (default).
1 = seconds and nanoseconds, accurate within 1/HZ.
2 = seconds and nanoseconds, truncated to microseconds.
>=3 = seconds and nanoseconds, maximum precision.
Level 1 uses getnanotime(), which is fast but can be wrong by up
to 1/HZ. Level 2 uses microtime(). It might be desirable for
consistency with utimes() and friends, which take timeval structures
rather than timespecs. Level 3 uses nanotime() for the higest
precision.
I benchmarked levels 0, 1, and 3 by copying a 550 MB tree with

stuff: unregister_methods() is horribly broken. The idea, if I'm not mistaken,
is that the refcount on a method is decremented, and only when it reaches
zero is the method freed. However desc->method is set to NULL unconditionally
regardless of the refcount, which means the method pointer is trashed the
first time the method is deallocated. The obvious detrimental effect is
that memory is leaked. The not so obvious effect is that when you call
unregister_method() the second time on the same method, you get a NULL
pointer dereference and a panic.
