re-organizing the monitor return logic. We perform interface monitoring
checks after we have determined if the CRC is still on the packet, if
it is, m_adj() is called which will adjust the packet length. This
ensures that we are not including CRC lengths in the byte counters for
each packet.

destination interface as a member of our bridge or this is a unicast packet,
push it through the bpf(4) machinery.
For broadcast or multicast packets, don't bother with the bpf(4) because it will
be re-injected into ether_input. We do this before we pass the packets through
the pfil(9) framework, as it is possible that pfil(9) will drop the packet or
possibly modify it, making it very difficult to debug firewall issues on the
bridge.
Further, implemented IFF_MONITOR for bridge interfaces. This does much the same
thing that it does for regular network interfaces: it pushes the packet to any
bpf(4) peers and then returns. This bypasses all of the bridge machinery,
saving mutex acquisitions, list traversals, and other operations performed by
the bridging code.
This change to the bridging code is useful in situations where individuals use a
bridge to multiplex RX/TX signals from two interfaces, as is required by some
network taps for de-multiplexing links and transmitting the RX/TX signals
out through two separate interfaces. This behaviour is quite common for network
taps monitoring links, especially for certain manufacturers.

has many positive effects including improved smp locking, reducing
interdependencies between mounts that can lead to deadlocks, etc.
- Add the softdep worklist and various counters to the ufsmnt structure.
- Add a mount pointer to the workitem and remove mount pointers from the
various structures derived from the workitem as they are now redundant.
- Remove the poor-man's semaphore protecting softdep_process_worklist and
softdep_flushworklist. Several threads may now process the list
simultaneously.
- Add softdep_waitidle() to block the thread until all pending
dependencies being operated on by other threads have been flushed.
- Use softdep_waitidle() in unmount and snapshots to block either
operation until the fs is stable.
- Remove softdep worklist processing from the syncer and move it into the
softdep_flush() thread. This thread processes all softdep mounts
once each second and when it is called via the new softdep_speedup()
when there is a resource shortage. This removes the softdep hook
from the kernel and various hacks in header files to support it.
