Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Add a check to preload_search_info to make sure mod is set. Most of the
callers of preload_search_info don't check that the mod parameter is
set, which can cause page faults. While at it, remove some now unnecessary
checks before calling preload_search_info.

attributes for preloaded modules/images. In particular, MODINFO_ADDR has
the added complexity of not always being relocated properly. Rather than
kluging this in the various components that are affected, we handle it
in a centralized place (preload_fetch_addr()). To that end, expose a new
variable, preload_addr_relocate, that MD initialization code can set and
that turns the address attribute into a valid kernel VA.
Architectures that need the relocation: arm & powerpc (at least).
Components that can utilize this: acpi(4), md(4), fb(4), pci(4), ZFS, geli.

should probably be moved to i386/i386/link_machdep.c (and the same for the
alpha).
Implement "deleting" a preloaded module by destroying it's tags. This is a
hack. We cannot reuse the data, it's been destroyed by relocation,
statically initialized variables have been modified, etc. Note that to
reclaim the load space is going to be more machine-dependent work.
Implement a relocate hook for machdep.c to call so that the physical
addresses get converted to the equivalent KVM addresses.
