rounding (impl. dep. #55), the SPARC JPS1 responsible for SPARC64 and
UltraSPARC processors defines that in all cases tininess is detected
before rounding therefore rounding up to the smallest normalized number
should set the underflow flag. This change is needed for using SoftFloat
on sparc64 for reference purposes.

This fix mostly matters after r206129 that made it possible for
st_blksize to be greater than 4K. For this reason, this change should
be MFC-ed before r206129.
Also, it seems that all FreeBSD uitlities that use db(3) hash databases
and create new databases in files, specify their own block size value
and thus do not depend on block size autotuning.

A nice thing about POSIX 2008 is that it finally standardizes a way to
obtain file access/modification/change times in sub-second precision,
namely using struct timespec, which we already have for a very long
time. Unfortunately POSIX uses different names.
This commit adds compatibility macros, so existing code should still
build properly. Also change all source code in the kernel to work
without any of the compatibility macros. This makes it all a less
ambiguous.
I am also renaming st_birthtime to st_birthtim, even though it was a
local extension anyway. It seems Cygwin also has a st_birthtim.
According to POSIX open() must return ENOTDIR when the path name does
not refer to a path name. Change vn_open() to respect this flag. This
also simplifies the Linuxolator a bit.

- If an infinite result is rounded down, the result should have an
exponent 1 less than the value for infinity.

- Use word-sized test for unaligned pointer before working
the hard way.
Memory page boundary is always integral multiple of a word
alignment boundary. Therefore, if we can access memory
referenced by pointer p, then (p & ~word mask) must be also
accessible.
- Better utilization of multi-issue processor's ability of
concurrency.
The previous implementation utilized a formular that must be
executed sequentially. However, the ~, & and - operations can
actually be caculated at the same time when the operand were
different and unrelated.
The original Hacker's Delight formular also offered consistent
performance regardless whether the input would contain
characters with their highest-bit set, as it catches real
nul characters only.
These two optimizations has shown further improvements over the
previous implementation on microbenchmarks on i386 and amd64 CPU
including Pentium 4, Core Duo 2 and i7.

- Explicitly initialize _fl_mutex to PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER for all FILE
objects. This is currently a nop on FreeBSD, but is import for other
platforms (or in the future) where PTHREAD_MUTEX_INITIALIZER is not simply
zero.

operands but not for double and extended double ones. Instead of trying
to fix the macro just nuke it and unroll the loops in the correct way
though as extended double operands turn out to be the only special case.
- For FxTO{s,d,q} the source operand is int64 so rs2 has to be re-decoded
after setting type accordingly as it's generally decoded using the low
2 bits as the type, which are 0 for these three instructions.
- Similarly, in case of F{s,d,q}TOx the target is int64 so rd has to be
re-decoded using not only the operand mask appropriate for int64 but
also the correct register number encoding.
- Use const where appropriate.
- Wrap long lines.

objects used to provide per-thread storage in the RPC code. Almost all
of these used double-checking with a dedicated mutex (tsd_lock) to do this
before. However, that is not always safe with more relaxed memory orders.
There were also other bugs, such as one in __rpc_createrr() that caused a
new key to be allocated each time __rpc_createrr() was invoked.

The `name' and `newp' arguments can be marked const, because the buffers
they refer to are never changed. While there, perform some other
cleanups:
- Remove K&R from sysctl.c.
- Implement sysctlbyname() using sysctlnametomib() to prevent
duplication of an undocumented kernel interface.
- Fix some whitespace nits.
It seems the prototypes are now in sync with NetBSD as well.
