it introduced a check after the call to file system's get pages method
that assumes that the get pages method does not change the array of pages
that is passed to it. In the case of vnode_pager_generic_getpages(),
this assumption has been incorrect. The contents of the array of pages
may be shifted by vnode_pager_generic_getpages(). Likely, the problem
has been hidden by vnode_pager_haspage() limiting the set of pages that
are passed to vnode_pager_generic_getpages() such that a shift never
occurs.
The fix implemented herein is to adjust the pointer to the array of pages
rather than shifting the pages within the array.

an error returned by VOP_BMAP() and a hole in the file.
Change the callers to vnode_pager_addr() such that they return
VM_PAGER_ERROR when VOP_BMAP fails instead of a zero-filled page.

to free memory that wasn't allocated. This is an old bug, and
previously it would attempt to free a null pointer. I noticed
this bug when working on the previous revision, but forgot to
fix it.

VA_MARK_ATIME feature to fix POSIX conformance fore execve() and mmap(),
we thought that it was optimized well enough for the one file system
that supports it (ffs) and harmless for other file systems (except
layered ones which already get the layering for VOP_SETATTR() wrong).
However, nfs_setattr() doesn't do much parameter checking, so when
it gets a combination of parameters that it doesn't understand, it
always does a Setattr RPC. This RPC can't do anything good, and for
VA_MARK_ATIME it is null except for wasting a lot of time.
This is the smallest and easiest to fix of several bugs that have
increased the number of RPCs for kernel builds on nfs by more than
100% since 2004-11-05. The real-time increase depends on network
latency and parallelization and can also be very large (approaching
the same percentage for unparallelized operations like "make depend"
on systems with fast CPUs and high-latency networks).
method is defined, to avoid memory being modified after free.
Temporarily increase refcount in destroy_devl() to avoid a double free
if dev_rel() is called while waiting for thread count to reach zero.
thread signal mask has been updated to avoid stack overflow during signal
bursts.
Don't block signal forever if no threads can currently handle signal.
Check for pending signal after direct invocation of signal handler.
