call VOP_CLOSE() with vp unlocked; clean up the return path a little,
in as much as our namei/vnode operation return paths can be cleared
up. For a return case that was apparently never taken, this sure
is ugly.

- Allow the OOM killer to target processes currently locked in
memory. These very often are the ones doing the memory hogging.
- Drop the wakeup priority of processes currently sleeping while
waiting for their page fault to complete. In order for the OOM
killer to work well, the killed process and other system processes
waiting on memory must be allowed to wakeup first.

- Leave 10 processes for root-only use, the previous
value of 1 was insufficient to run ps ax | more.
- Remove the printing of "proc: table full". When the table
really is full, this would flood the screen/logs, making
the problem tougher to deal with.
- Force any process trying to fork beyond its user's maximum
number of processes to sleep for .5 seconds before returning
failure. This turns 2000 rampaging fork monsters into 2000
harmlessly snoozing fork monsters.

reaquiring it. In the same vein, don't bother dropping the thread cred
when going to userland. We are guaranteed to need it when we come back,

All will be stubbed in this kernel in the next commit.
This will allow people to easily make KSE binaries for userland testing
(the syscalls will be in libc) but they will still need a real KSE kernel
to test it. (libc looks in /sys to decide what it should add stubs for).
to notify other nodes about the address change. Otherwise, they
might try and keep using the old address until their arp table
entry times out and the address is refreshed.
Maybe this ought to be done for INET6 addresses as well but i have
no idea how to do it. It should be pretty straightforward though.

o Change all occurrences of NTOHL() and associated marcros in the
source tree to use the lowercase function variants.
o Add missing license bits to sparc64's <machine/endian.h>.

o Clean up <machine/endian.h> files.
o Remove unused __uint16_swap_uint32() from i386's <machine/endian.h>.
o Remove prototypes for non-existent bswapXX() functions.
o Include <machine/endian.h> in <arpa/inet.h> to define the
POSIX-required ntohl() family of functions.
o Do similar things to expose the ntohl() family in libstand, <netinet/in.h>,
and <sys/param.h>.
o Prepend underscores to the ntohl() family to help deal with
complexities associated with having MD (asm and inline) versions, and
having to prevent exposure of these functions in other headers that
happen to make use of endian-specific defines.
o Create weak aliases to the canonical function name to help deal with
third-party software forgetting to include an appropriate header.
o Remove some now unneeded pollution from <sys/types.h>.
o Add missing <arpa/inet.h> includes in userland.

address zero sectors in 48bit mode, why then say it supports

buffer length, determine if the pointer is to a valid string. Currently,
the only check is whether a '\0' appears in the buffer. This is useful
when pulling in a structure from userland that may contain one or more
strings, and validity testing must be performed on elements of the
structure. When copying normal string arguments, copyinstr() is
expected to be used.
