An incorrectly-sized allocation was being made due to an incorrect
argument to the `sizeof' operator. Obvious, because it violated the
`foo = malloc(sizeof(*foo))' idiom. Hard-to-see, because it was a
missing `*' (`*p' versus `**p').
Resulting failure was

o KMF_NOUPCALL
Ask kse_release to not return to userland upcall entry, but instead
direct returns to userland by using current thread's stack and return
address on stack. This flags is intended to be used by UTS in critical
region to wait another UTS thread to leave critical region, by using
kse_release with this flag to avoid spinnng and burning CPU. Also this
flags can be used by UTS to poll completed context when there is nothing
to do in userland and needn't restart from its entry like normal upcall.
o KMF_NOCOMPLETED
Ask kernel to not bring completed thread contexts back to userland when
doing upcall, this flags is intend to be used with above flag when an
upcall thread is in critical region and can not process completed contexts
at that time.

'd': now means don't do daemon().
'D': Debug
'n': Don't wait to process all pending events before calling daemon.
In the past, devd would call daemon immediately. However, this causes
a race. If anything in the boot process depends on configuring the
devices configured by devd, maybe they would be configured in time,
maybe not. Now we don't call daemon until all pending events are
processed, unless -n is specified.
# -n is actually the default for a while due to the select(2) bug in devctl
# that I just fixed to give people a chance to upgrade.
the poll bits when there's actually something in the queue.
Otherwise, select always returned '2' when there were no items to be
read, and '3' when there were. This would preclude being able to read
in a threaded (libc_r) program, as well as checking to see if there
were pending events or not.
to 0 when we startup. Print a warning in this case. This allows
people that are playing with devd by hand to have something happen.
Otherwise, it appears that devd isn't working because /dev/devctl is
disabled and producing no events.

to be instances where the kernel doesn't properly save and/or
restore it.
Use noupcall and nocompleted flags in the KSE mailbox. These
require kernel changes to work which will be committed sometime
later. Things still work without the changes.
Remove the general kse entry function and use two different
functions -- one for scope system threads and one for scope
process threads. The scope system function is not yet enabled
and we use the same function for all threads at the moment.
Keep a copy of the KSE stack for the case that a KSE runs
a scope system thread and uses the same stack as the thread
(no upcalls are generated, so a separate stack isn't needed).
This isn't enabled yet.
Use a separate field for the KSE waiting flag. It isn't
correct to use the mailbox flags field.
The following fixes were provided by David Xu:
o Initialize condition variable locks with thread versions
of the low-level locking functions instead of the kse versions.
o Enable threading before creating the first thread instead
of after.
o Don't enter critical regions when trying to malloc/free
or call functions that malloc/free.
o Take the scheduling lock when inheriting thread attributes.
o Check the attribute's stack pointer instead of the
attributes stack size for null when allocating a
thread's stack.
o Add a kseg reinit function so we don't have to destroy and
then recreate the same lock.
o Check the return value of kse_create() and return an
appropriate error if it fails.
o Don't forget to destroy a thread's locks when freeing it.
o Examine the correct flags word for checking to see if
a thread is in a synchronization queue.
Things should now work on an SMP kernel.
'a="b" c="d" at loc=1 on busN' properly set 'c' and process the rest of
the stirng. Before it would ignore everything after variable 'a'.
o Parse nomatch and other events differently. They are more different
than the code allowed for, so we weren't properly parsing nomatch
events. It appears this fixes some of the demand loading issues that
I was having with devd.

This is how it has always been done (before and after rc.d) but
I somehow failed to include it when I broke up network1.

ethernet controller. The driver has been tested with the LinkSys
USB200M adapter. I know for a fact that there are other devices out
there with this chip but don't have all the USB vendor/device IDs.
Note: I'm not sure if this will force the driver to end up in the
install kernel image or not. Special magic needs to be done to exclude
it to keep the boot floppies from bloating again, someone please
advise.
