that ext2fs in the kernel supports async mounts. ext2fs used to
effectively force the -async flag on. -async for ext2fs only gives
async (more precisely, delayed) writes for inode updates, so it is
barely worth using even when it is safe.

The Am1771 driver will sometimes do the following:
- Some thread-> NdisScheduleWorkItem(some work)
- Worker thread -> do some work, KeWaitForSingleObject(some event)
- Some other thread -> NdisScheduleWorkItem(some other work)
When the second call to NdisScheduleWorkItem() occurs, the NDIS worker
thread (in our case ndis taskqueue) is suspended in KeWaitForSingleObject()
and waiting for an event to be signaled. This is different from when
the worker thread is idle and waiting on NdisScheduleWorkItem() to
send it more jobs. However, the ndis_sched() function in kern_ndis.c
always calls kthread_resume() when queueing a new job. Normally this
would be ok, but here this causes KeWaitForSingleObject() to return
prematurely, which is not what we want.
To fix this, the NDIS threads created by kern_ndis.c maintain a state
variable to indicate whether they are running (scanning the job list
and executing jobs) or sleeping (blocked on kthread_suspend() in
ndis_runq()), and ndis_sched() will only call kthread_resume() if
the thread is in the sleeping state.
Note that we can't just check to see if the thread is on the run queue:
in both cases, the thread is sleeping, but it's sleeping for different
reasons.
This stops the Am1771 driver from emitting various "NDIS ERROR" messages
and fixes some cases where it crashes.
data for the file system on which the jail's root vnode is located.
Previous behavior (show data for all mountpoints) can be restored
by setting security.jail.getfsstatroot_only to 0. Note: this also
has the effect of hiding other mounts inside a jail, such as /dev,
/tmp, and /proc, but errs on the side of leaking less information.

any initialization now, this is safe.

ISA. npx has few isa dependencies, but it does unconditional outb()'s to
the isa bus in the !SMP case, and it attaches to isa if "device isa" is
configured in order to support PNP-ISA. The ifdef for the latter was
misplaced.
