valid pmap to the pmap functions that require one. Remove the checks for
NULL. (These checks have their origins in the Mach pmap.c that was
integrated into BSD. None of the new code written specifically for
FreeBSD included them.)
diffs against #ifdef'd version of IPSEC, use "struct thread *p"

netisr_queue() now returns (0) on success and ERRNO on failure. At the
moment ENXIO (netisr queue not functional) and ENOBUFS (netisr queue full)
are supported.
Previously it would return (1) on success but the return value of IF_HANDOFF()
was interpreted wrongly and (0) was actually returned on success. Due to this
schednetisr() was never called to kick the scheduling of the isr. However this
was masked by other normal packets coming through netisr_dispatch() causing the
dequeueing of waiting packets.

to point to a local IP address; and the packet was sourced from this host
we fill in the m_pkthdr.rcvif with a pointer to the loopback interface.
Before the function ifunit("lo0") was used to obtain the ifp. However
this is sub-optimal from a performance point of view and might be dangerous
if the loopback interface has been renamed. Use the global variable 'loif'
instead which always points to the loopback interface.

compile option. All FreeBSD packet filters now use the PFIL_HOOKS API and
thus it becomes a standard part of the network stack.
If no hooks are connected the entire packet filter hooks section and related
activities are jumped over. This removes any performance impact if no hooks
are active.
Both OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD have integrated PFIL_HOOKS permanently as well.

it is not used at all.

Add missing untimeout that would get lost in handling of some
error situations, and caused what looked like random timeouts
afterwards when the timeout fired.
This should provide a big performance boost for folks using NIS or LDAP.

relocation is not sufficient for ELF relocatable object format
modules, since accessing the module metadata involves following
pointers between different ELF sections.
This allows kldxref to correctly build linker.hints on the amd64
platform.
- Use copyinstr() to read cs_win, cs_dos, cs_local strings from the
mount argument structure instead of reading through user-space pointers(!).
- When mounting a filesystem, or updating an existing mount, only try to
update the iconv handles from the information in the mount argument
structure if the structure itself has the MSDOSFSMNT_KICONV flag set.
- Attempt to handle failure of update_mp() in the MNT_UPDATE case.
- sort the list of adapters
- add the 3Com 3c460 HomeConnect Ethernet USB Adapter [1]
- properly capitalize Ethernet
- replace a misleading 'adapter' with 'chipset'
