d1c1b8413e Remove MUTEX_DECLARE() and MTX_COLD. Instead, postpone full mutex
initialization until after malloc() is safe to call, then iterate through
all mutexes and complete their initialization.

This change is necessary in order to avoid some circular bootstrapping
dependencies.

0384fff8c5 Major update to the way synchronization is done in the kernel. Highlights
include:

* Mutual exclusion is used instead of spl*().  See mutex(9).  (Note: The
  alpha port is still in transition and currently uses both.)

* Per-CPU idle processes.

* Interrupts are run in their own separate kernel threads and can be
  preempted (i386 only).

bd3cdc3105 These patches implement dynamic sysctls. It's possible now to add
and remove sysctl oids at will during runtime - they don't rely on
linker sets. Also, the node oids can be referenced by more than
one kernel user, which means that it's possible to create partially
overlapping trees.

Add sysctl contexts to help programmers manage multiple dynamic
oids in convenient way.

Please see the manpages for detailed discussion, and example module
for typical use.

This work is based on ideas and code snippets coming from many
people, among them:  Arun Sharma, Jonathan Lemon, Doug Rabson,
Brian Feldman, Kelly Yancey, Poul-Henning Kamp and others. I'd like
to specially thank Brian Feldman for detailed review and style
fixes.

03be717064 Get rid of the manpages for BUS_CREATE_INTR() and BUS_CONNECT_INTR().
These got replaced by BUS_SETUP_INTR().

This once again illustrates an API change without informing -doc, so
that these sort post cleanup actions could've been avoided.

And then people wonder why the docs suck so much at times.
