LINT talks about about 2.1. I changed that to 2.0.5,
and clarified why certain devices need "at scbus?".
There is still a crazy "PCVT=210" which shouldn't be there,
but corrected comment as it is needed for 2.0.5.
- option DODUMP no longer exists (remove all references to it).
- directive `swap on' is now a no-op (don't bother documenting it; remove
comment to match code).
- directive `dumps on' still works (restore code to match comment; deprecate
it in comment).

require specific partitions be mentioned in the kernel config
file ("swap on foo" is now obsolete).
From Poul-Henning:
The visible effect is this:
As default, unless
options "NSWAPDEV=23"
is in your config, you will have four swap-devices.
You can swapon(2) any block device you feel like, it doesn't have
to be in the kernel config.
There is a performance/resource win available by getting the NSWAPDEV right
(but only if you have just one swap-device ??), but using that as default
would be too restrictive.
The invisible effect is that:
Swap-handling disappears from the $arch part of the kernel.
It gets a lot simpler (-145 lines) and cleaner.

Add support for the Microsoft Sound Source.

briefly over it, and see some serious architectural issues in this stuff.
On the other hand, I doubt that we will have any solution to these issues
before 2.1, so we might as well leave this in.
Most of the stuff is bracketed by #ifdef's so it shouldn't matter too much
in the normal case.
