last cleanup. Since the oid_arg2 field of struct sysctl_oid is not wide
enough to hold a long, the SYSCTL_LONG() macro has been modified to only
support exporting long variables by pointer instead of by value.

Sigh. This is still a long way from being correct. In particular,
the states are both incorrect, and they don't format properly in
troff. But it will have to wait until I stop changing the meanings of
the states.

Overall very good content, but we need one of our wordsmiths to change the
tone to match the CSRG manpages.
"I've been having a problem running the patches [committed to current]
installed with the COMPAT_LINUX_THREADS option along
with the VM_STACK patches I did. I'm not sure what
the problem is, since it seemed to work before.
In any event, the attached patch fixes the problem for
me. While I've had no report of problems from anyone
else, possibly it would be wise to commit the patch
until the problem is found.
Also, there was some left-over junk in the linux_misc.c
file from some earlier work I did. The attached patch
cleans that up too."

in cyopen() were done in a different order than in sioopen(), partly
to (ab)use a side effect of comparam() and partly because I didn't
understand what the reset was doing (it flushes the fifos). This
turned out to be more than a cosmetic problem. Flushing the fifos
quite late is good for discarding input that arrived while the line
state was being initialized, and in the cy driver it also seems to
reduce a problem with input that arrived long ago during the previous
close (the UART loses sync too easily and for too long).
