1. Limit secs to INT32_MAX / 2 to avoid errors from kern_setitimer().
Assert that kern_setitimer() returns 0.
Remove bogus cast of secs.
Fix style(9) issues.
2. Increment the return value if the remaining tv_usec value more than 500000 as a Linux does.

On some architectures, u_long isn't large enough for resource definitions.
Particularly, powerpc and arm allow 36-bit (or larger) physical addresses, but
type `long' is only 32-bit. This extends rman's resources to uintmax_t. With
this change, any resource can feasibly be placed anywhere in physical memory
(within the constraints of the driver).
Why uintmax_t and not something machine dependent, or uint64_t? Though it's
possible for uintmax_t to grow, it's highly unlikely it will become 128-bit on
32-bit architectures. 64-bit architectures should have plenty of RAM to absorb
the increase on resource sizes if and when this occurs, and the number of
resources on memory-constrained systems should be sufficiently small as to not
pose a drastic overhead. That being said, uintmax_t was chosen for source
clarity. If it's specified as uint64_t, all printf()-like calls would either
need casts to uintmax_t, or be littered with PRI*64 macros. Casts to uintmax_t
aren't horrible, but it would also bake into the API for
resource_list_print_type() either a hidden assumption that entries get cast to
uintmax_t for printing, or these calls would need the PRI*64 macros. Since
source code is meant to be read more often than written, I chose the clearest
path of simply using uintmax_t.
Tested on a PowerPC p5020-based board, which places all device resources in
0xfxxxxxxxx, and has 8GB RAM.

- Mark AIO system calls as STD and remove the helpers to dynamically
register them.
- Use COMPAT6 for the old system calls with the older sigevent instead of
an 'o' prefix.
- Simplify the POSIX configuration to note that AIO is always available.
- Handle AIO in the default VOP_PATHCONF instead of special casing it in
the pathconf() system call. fpathconf() is still hackish.
- Remove freebsd32_aio_cancel() as it just called the native one directly.

XXX. Unlike POSIX, Linux in case when the invalid seconds value specified
always return 0, so in that case Linux does not return proper remining time.

fork1 required its callers to pass a pointer to struct proc * which would
be set to the new process (if any). procdesc and racct manipulation also
used said pointer.
However, the process could have exited prior to do_fork return and be
automatically reaped, thus making this a use-after-free.
Fix the problem by letting callers indicate whether they want the pid or
the struct proc, return the process in stopped state for the latter case.

If a driver's Linux mmap callback passed vm_page_prot through unchanged,
then linux_dev_mmap_single() would try to apply whatever VM_MEMATTR_xxx
value 0 is to the mapping. On x86, VM_MEMATTR_DEFAULT is the PAT value
for write-back (WB) which is 6, while 0 maps to the PAT value for
uncacheable (UC). Thus, any mmap request that did not explicitly set
page_prot was tried to map memory as UC triggering the warning in
sg_pager_getpages().

The set_robust_list system call request the kernel to record the head
of the list of robust futexes owned by the calling thread. The head
argument is the list head to record.
The get_robust_list system call should return the head of the robust
list of the thread whose thread id is specified in pid argument.
The list head should be stored in the location pointed to by head
argument.
In contrast, our implemenattion of get_robust_list system call copies
the known portion of memory pointed by recorded in set_robust_list
system call pointer to the head of the robust list to the location
pointed by head argument.
So, it is possible for a local attacker to read portions of kernel
memory, which may result in a privilege escalation.
