This partially reverts commit af433832f7.
Since such bogus disklabels still exist in the wild, we now probe for a
disklabel to decide whether to ignore the UFS partition or not; if there
is a label then we use the old behaviour, and if there isn't one then we
use the new behaviour.

We removed sysinstall(8) back in 2011, so this workaround should be long
since unnecessary. This workaround can end up breaking cases that are
hit in the real world, such as dd'ing a small pre-built disk image to a
large partition that you intend to grow on first boot and uses a UFS
disk label for / in its /etc/fstab (as the only reliable thing a raw UFS
image can reference).

superblock has a check-hash error, an error message noting the
superblock check-hash failure is printed and the mount fails. The
administrator then runs fsck to repair the filesystem and when
successful, the filesystem can once again be mounted.
This approach fails if the filesystem in question is a root filesystem
from which you are trying to boot. Here, the loader fails when trying
to access the filesystem to get the kernel to boot. So it is necessary
to allow the loader to ignore the superblock check-hash error and make
a best effort to read the kernel. The filesystem may be suffiently
corrupted that the read attempt fails, but there is no harm in trying
since the loader makes no attempt to write to the filesystem.
Once the kernel is loaded and starts to run, it attempts to mount its
root filesystem. Once again, failure means that it breaks to its prompt
to ask where to get its root filesystem. Unless you have an alternate
root filesystem, you are stuck.
Since the root filesystem is initially mounted read-only, it is
safe to make an attempt to mount the root filesystem with the failed
superblock check-hash. Thus, when asked to mount a root filesystem
with a failed superblock check-hash, the kernel prints a warning
message that the root filesystem superblock check-hash needs repair,
but notes that it is ignoring the error and proceeding. It does
mark the filesystem as needing an fsck which prevents it from being
enabled for writing until fsck has been run on it. The net effect
is that the reboot fails to single user, but at least at that point
the administrator has the tools at hand to fix the problem.

to fix the memory leak that I introduced in r328426. Instead of
trying to clear up the possible memory leak in all the clients, I
ensure that it gets cleaned up in the source (e.g., ffs_sbget ensures
that memory is always freed if it returns an error).
The original change in r328426 was a bit sparse in its description.
So I am expanding on its description here (thanks cem@ and rgrimes@
for your encouragement for my longer commit messages).
In preparation for adding check hashing to superblocks, r328426 is
a refactoring of the code to get the reading/writing of the superblock
into one place. Unlike the cylinder group reading/writing which
ends up in two places (ffs_getcg/ffs_geom_strategy in the kernel
and cgget/cgput in libufs), I have the core superblock functions
just in the kernel (ffs_sbfetch/ffs_sbput in ffs_subr.c which is
already imported into utilities like fsck_ffs as well as libufs to
implement sbget/sbput). The ffs_sbfetch and ffs_sbput functions
take a function pointer to do the actual I/O for which there are
four variants:
ffs_use_bread / ffs_use_bwrite for the in-kernel filesystem
g_use_g_read_data / g_use_g_write_data for kernel geom clients
ufs_use_sa_read for the standalone code (stand/libsa/ufs.c
but not stand/libsa/ufsread.c which is size constrained)
use_pread / use_pwrite for libufs
Uses of these interfaces are in the UFS filesystem, geoms journal &
label, libsa changes, and libufs. They also permeate out into the
filesystem utilities fsck_ffs, newfs, growfs, clri, dump, quotacheck,
fsirand, fstyp, and quot. Some of these utilities should probably be
converted to directly use libufs (like dumpfs was for example), but
there does not seem to be much win in doing so.

ffs_sbget() may return a superblock buffer even if it fails, so the
caller must be prepared to free it in this case. Moreover, when tasting
alternate superblock locations in a loop, ffs_sbget()'s readfunc
callback must free the previously allocated buffer.

superblock, and the kernel will fail to link when UFS is not built
in. This commit makes it depend on a small portion of FFS bits and
thereby fixes build for this situation.
This is intended as an interim bandaid, and the actual superblock
reading code should probably be made independent of UFS, so we do
not need to depend on it (see kib@'s comment in the review for
details), and we will revisit this once the superblock check hashes
are all in place.

Specifically reading is done if ffs_sbget() and writing is done
in ffs_sbput(). These functions are exported to libufs via the
sbget() and sbput() functions which then used in the various
filesystem utilities. This work is in preparation for adding
subperblock check hashes.
No functional change intended.

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.
superblock, allowing provider to be bit bigger, i.e. have some
extra padding after the FS image. That in some cases might be
a side-effect of using CLOOP format which enforces certain block
size and trying to compress image that is not exactly the number
of those blocks in size. The UFS itself does not have any issues
mounting such padded file systems, so it's what GEOM_LABEL should
do.

extended using growfs(8). The problem here is that geom_label checks if
the filesystem size recorded in UFS superblock is equal to the provider
(i.e. device) size. This check cannot be removed due to backward
compatibility. On the other hand, in most cases growfs(8) cannot set
fs_size in the superblock to match the provider size, because, differently
from newfs(8), it cannot recompute cylinder group sizes.
To fix this problem, add another superblock field, fs_providersize, used
only for this purpose. The geom_label(4) will attach if either fs_size
(filesystem created with newfs(8)) or fs_providersize (filesystem expanded
using growfs(8)) matches the device size.

sysinstall(8) still bogusly puts first partition at offset 0 instead of 16,
so glabel/ufs will find file system on slice instead of partition.
Before sysinstall is fixed, we must keep this code, which means that we
wont't be able to detect UFS file systems created with 'newfs -s ...'.

resides on. Fix the special case of the filesystem fragment size not
evenly dividing the size of the provider. Fixing the general case
probably requires better superblock validation (left as an exercise to
the reader).
This class is used for detecting volume labels on file systems:
UFS, MSDOSFS (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32) and ISO9660.
It also provide native labelization (there is no need for file system).
g_label_ufs.c is based on geom_vol_ffs from Gordon Tetlow.
g_label_msdos.c and g_label_iso9660.c are probably hacks, I just found
where volume labels are stored and I use those offsets here,
but with this class it should be easy to do it as it should be done by
someone who know how.
Implementing volume labels detection for other file systems also should
be trivial.
New providers are created in those directories:
/dev/ufs/ (UFS1, UFS2)
/dev/msdosfs/ (FAT12, FAT16, FAT32)
/dev/iso9660/ (ISO9660)
/dev/label/ (native labels, configured with glabel(8))
