It includes three parts:
1) Modifications to CAM to detect media media changes and report them to
disk(9) layer. For modern SATA (and potentially UAS) devices it utilizes
Asynchronous Notification mechanism to receive events from hardware.
Active polling with TEST UNIT READY commands with 3 seconds period is used
for incapable hardware. After that both CD and DA drivers work the same way,
detecting two conditions: "NOT READY: Medium not present" after medium was
detected previously, and "UNIT ATTENTION: Not ready to ready change, medium
may have changed". First one reported to disk(9) as media removal, second
as media insert/change. To reliably receive second event new
AC_UNIT_ATTENTION async added to make UAs broadcasted to all periphs by
generic error handling code in cam_periph_error().
2) Modifications to GEOM core to handle media remove and change events.
Media removal handled by spoiling all consumers attached to the provider.
Media change event also schedules provider retaste after spoiling to probe
new media. New flag G_CF_ORPHAN was added to consumers to reflect that
consumer is in process of destruction. It allows retaste to create new
geom instance of the same class, while previous one is still dying.
3) Modifications to some GEOM classes: DEV -- to report media change
events to devd; VFS -- to handle spoiling same as orphan to prevent
accessing replaced media. PART class already handles spoiling alike to
orphan.

Add the BIO_ORDERED flag for struct bio and update bio clients to use it.
The barrier semantics of bioq_insert_tail() were broken in two ways:
o In bioq_disksort(), an added bio could be inserted at the head of
the queue, even when a barrier was present, if the sort key for
the new entry was less than that of the last queued barrier bio.
o The last_offset used to generate the sort key for newly queued bios
did not stay at the position of the barrier until either the
barrier was de-queued, or a new barrier (which updates last_offset)
was queued. When a barrier is in effect, we know that the disk
will pass through the barrier position just before the
"blocked bios" are released, so using the barrier's offset for
last_offset is the optimal choice.
sys/geom/sched/subr_disk.c:
sys/kern/subr_disk.c:
o Update last_offset in bioq_insert_tail().
o Only update last_offset in bioq_remove() if the removed bio is
at the head of the queue (typically due to a call via
bioq_takefirst()) and no barrier is active.
o In bioq_disksort(), if we have a barrier (insert_point is non-NULL),
set prev to the barrier and cur to it's next element. Now that
last_offset is kept at the barrier position, this change isn't
strictly necessary, but since we have to take a decision branch
anyway, it does avoid one, no-op, loop iteration in the while
loop that immediately follows.
o In bioq_disksort(), bypass the normal sort for bios with the
BIO_ORDERED attribute and instead insert them into the queue
with bioq_insert_tail(). bioq_insert_tail() not only gives
the desired command order during insertion, but also provides
barrier semantics so that commands disksorted in the future
cannot pass the just enqueued transaction.

Previsouly this condition was reported with EIO by bio_offset > mediasize
check.
Perhaps that check should be extended to bio_offset+bio_length > mediasize.

definition and use of 'mymutex' behind #ifdef WITNESS to avoid the cost
