1) Allow the sending of more than one control message at a time
over a unix domain socket. This should cover the PR 29499.
2) This requires that unp_{ex,in}ternalize and unp_scan understand
mbufs with more than one control message at a time.
3) Internalize and externalize used to work on the mbuf in-place.
This made life quite complicated and the code for sizeof(int) <
sizeof(file *) could end up doing the wrong thing. The patch always
create a new mbuf/cluster now. This resulted in the change of the
prototype for the domain externalise function.
4) You can now send SCM_TIMESTAMP messages.
5) Always use CMSG_DATA(cm) to determine the start where the data
in unp_{ex,in}ternalize. It was using ((struct cmsghdr *)cm + 1)
in some places, which gives the wrong alignment on the alpha.
(NetBSD made this fix some time ago).
This results in an ABI change for discriptor passing and creds
passing on the alpha. (Probably on the IA64 and Spare ports too).
6) Fix userland programs to use CMSG_* macros too.
7) Be more careful about freeing mbufs containing (file *)s.
This is made possible by the prototype change of externalise.

This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except

improved readability. The two real functional changes are that
netgraph now sees this as the "split" node type rather then the
"ng_split" node type and that meta data is passed through without
processing rather then being dropped.

machines. The code formerly read:
long val;
if (val < (long)-0x80000000 || ...)
return EINVAL;
The constant 0x80000000 has type unsigned int. The unary `-'
operator does not change the type (or the value, in this case).
Therefore the promotion to long is done by 0-extension, giving
0x0000000080000000 instead of the desired 0xffffffff80000000. I
got rid of the `-' and changed the cast to (int32_t) to give proper
sign-extension on all architectures and to better reflect the fact
that we are range-checking a 32-bit value.
This commit also makes the analogous changes to ng_int{8,16}_parse

Change a prototype.
Add a function version of ng_ref_node() when debugging so
a breakpoint can be set on it.
ng_base.c:
add 'node' as an argument to ng_apply_item so that it is up
to the caller to take over and release the item's reference on
the node. If the release reports back that the node went away
due to the reference going to 0, the caller should cease referencing
the now defunct node. (e.g. the item was a 'kill node' message).
Alter ng_unref_node to report back the residual references as a result.
ng_pptpgre.c:
Don't reference a node after we dropped a reference to it.

mtx_enter(lock, type) becomes:
mtx_lock(lock) for sleep locks (MTX_DEF-initialized locks)
mtx_lock_spin(lock) for spin locks (MTX_SPIN-initialized)
similarily, for releasing a lock, we now have:
mtx_unlock(lock) for MTX_DEF and mtx_unlock_spin(lock) for MTX_SPIN.
We change the caller interface for the two different types of locks
because the semantics are entirely different for each case, and this
makes it explicitly clear and, at the same time, it rids us of the
extra `type' argument.
The enter->lock and exit->unlock change has been made with the idea
that we're "locking data" and not "entering locked code" in mind.
Further, remove all additional "flags" previously passed to the
lock acquire/release routines with the exception of two:
MTX_QUIET and MTX_NOSWITCH
The functionality of these flags is preserved and they can be passed
to the lock/unlock routines by calling the corresponding wrappers:
mtx_{lock, unlock}_flags(lock, flag(s)) and
mtx_{lock, unlock}_spin_flags(lock, flag(s)) for MTX_DEF and MTX_SPIN
locks, respectively.
Re-inline some lock acq/rel code; in the sleep lock case, we only
inline the _obtain_lock()s in order to ensure that the inlined code
fits into a cache line. In the spin lock case, we inline recursion and
actually only perform a function call if we need to spin. This change
has been made with the idea that we generally tend to avoid spin locks
and that also the spin locks that we do have and are heavily used
(i.e. sched_lock) do recurse, and therefore in an effort to reduce
function call overhead for some architectures (such as alpha), we
inline recursion for this case.
Create a new malloc type for the witness code and retire from using
the M_DEV type. The new type is called M_WITNESS and is only declared
if WITNESS is enabled.
Begin cleaning up some machdep/mutex.h code - specifically updated the
"optimized" inlined code in alpha/mutex.h and wrote MTX_LOCK_SPIN
and MTX_UNLOCK_SPIN asm macros for the i386/mutex.h as we presently
need those.
Finally, caught up to the interface changes in all sys code.
