passing it to cpuset_which(). Pass in 'set' instead. This argument
is not used but for convenience cpuset_which() nulls all incoming
parameters.

mask none of the upper bits are set.
- Be more careful about enforcing the boundaries of masks and child sets.
- Introduce a few more CPU_* macros for implementing these tests.
- Change the cpusetsize argument to be bytes rather than bits to match
other apis.

and assignment.
- Add a reference to a struct cpuset in each thread that is inherited from
the thread that created it.
- Release the reference when the thread is destroyed.
- Add prototypes for syscalls and macros for manipulating cpusets in
sys/cpuset.h
- Add syscalls to create, get, and set new numbered cpusets:
cpuset(), cpuset_{get,set}id()
- Add syscalls for getting and setting affinity masks for cpusets or
individual threads: cpuid_{get,set}affinity()
- Add types for the 'level' and 'which' parameters for the cpuset. This
will permit expansion of the api to cover cpu masks for other objects
identifiable with an id_t integer. For example, IRQs and Jails may be
coming soon.
- The root set 0 contains all valid cpus. All thread initially belong to
cpuset 1. This permits migrating all threads off of certain cpus to
reserve them for special applications.
