Tell vop_strategy_pre() to use this instead.
- Ignore B_CLUSTER bufs. Their components are locked but they don't really
exist so they don't have to be. This isn't ideal but it is safe.
- Cache a pointer to the vnode's object in the buf.
- Hold a reference to that object in addition to the vnode's reference just
to be consistent.
- Cleanup code that got the object indirectly through the vp and VOP calls.
This fixes at least one case where we were calling GETVOBJECT without a lock.
It also avoids an expensive layered call at the cost of another pointer in
struct buf.
- Grab the vnode object early in exec when we still have the vnode lock.
- Cache the object in the image_params.
- Make use of the cached object in imgact_*.c
- Switch to the new vop_strategy_pre for lock validation.
VOP_STRATEGY requires only that the buf is locked UNLESS the block numbers need
to be translated. There may be other reasons, but as long as the underlying
layer uses a VOP to perform the operations they will be caught later.
- Disable original vop_strategy lock specification.

queue lock (revision 1.33 of vm/vm_page.c removed them).
o Make the free queue lock a spin lock because it's sometimes acquired
inside of a critical section.
The file vfs_conf.c which was dealing with root mounting has
been repo-copied into vfs_mount.c to preserve history.
This makes nmount related development easier, and help reducing
the size of vfs_syscalls.c, which is still an enormous file.

direct calls for the two places where the kernel calls into soft

them out in softdep_uninitialize(). This change allows soft updates
to function correctly when ufs is loaded as a module.
