- Since polling should not involve sleeping, keep holding a
process lock upon scanning file descriptors.
- Hold a reference to every file descriptor prior to entering
polling loop in order to avoid lock order reversal between
lockmgr and p_mtx upon calling fdrop() in fo_poll().
(NOTE: this work has not been done for netncp and netsmb
yet because a socket itself has no reference counts.)

This is because calls with M_WAIT (now M_TRYWAIT) may not wait
forever when nothing is available for allocation, and may end up
returning NULL. Hopefully we now communicate more of the right thing
to developers and make it very clear that it's necessary to check whether
calls with M_(TRY)WAIT also resulted in a failed allocation.
M_TRYWAIT basically means "try harder, block if necessary, but don't
necessarily wait forever." The time spent blocking is tunable with
the kern.ipc.mbuf_wait sysctl.
M_WAIT is now deprecated but still defined for the next little while.
* Fix a typo in a comment in mbuf.h
* Fix some code that was actually passing the mbuf subsystem's M_WAIT to
malloc(). Made it pass M_WAITOK instead. If we were ever to redefine the
value of the M_WAIT flag, this could have became a big problem.
