As a side effect it fixes the issue with kern.proc.args and kern.proc.env
sysctls, which didn't return the size of available data when calling
sysctl(3) with the NULL argument for oldp.
Note, in get_ps_strings(), which does actual work for proc_getargv() and
proc_getenvv(), we still have a safety limit on the size of data read in
case of a corrupted procces stack.

safer for i386 because it can be easily over 4 GHz now. More worse, it can
be easily changed by user with 'machdep.tsc_freq' tunable (directly) or
cpufreq(4) (indirectly). Note it is intentionally not used in performance
critical paths to avoid performance regression (but we should, in theory).
Alternatively, we may add "virtual TSC" with lower frequency if maximum
frequency overflows 32 bits (and ignore possible incoherency as we do now).
- Hold the proc lock while changing the state from PRS_NEW to PRS_NORMAL
in fork to honor the locking requirements. While here, expand the scope
of the PROC_LOCK() on the new process (p2) to avoid some LORs. Previously
the code was locking the new child process (p2) after it had locked the
parent process (p1). However, when locking two processes, the safe order
is to lock the child first, then the parent.
- Fix various places that were checking p_state against PRS_NEW without
having the process locked to use PROC_LOCK(). Every place was already
locking the process, just after the PRS_NEW check.
- Remove or reduce the use of PROC_SLOCK() for places that were checking
p_state against PRS_NEW. The PROC_LOCK() alone is sufficient for reading
the current state.
- Reorder fill_kinfo_proc() slightly so it only acquires PROC_SLOCK() once.

On Linux, /proc/<pid>/fd is comparable to fdescfs, where it allows you
to inspect the file descriptors used by each process. Glibc's ttyname()
works by performing a readlink() on these nodes, since all nodes in this
directory are symlinks.
It is a bit hard to implement this in linprocfs right now, so I am not
going to bother. Add a way to make ttyname(3) work, by adding a
/proc/<pid>/fd symlink, which points to /dev/fd only if the calling
process matches. When fdescfs is mounted, this will cause the
readlink() in ttyname() to fail, causing it to fall back on manually
finding a matching node in /dev.

vnet.h, we now use jails (rather than vimages) as the abstraction
for virtualization management, and what remained was specific to
virtual network stacks. Minor cleanups are done in the process,
and comments updated to reflect these changes.

(DPCPU), as suggested by Peter Wemm, and implement a new per-virtual
network stack memory allocator. Modify vnet to use the allocator
instead of monolithic global container structures (vinet, ...). This
change solves many binary compatibility problems associated with
VIMAGE, and restores ELF symbols for virtualized global variables.
Each virtualized global variable exists as a "reference copy", and also
once per virtual network stack. Virtualized global variables are
tagged at compile-time, placing the in a special linker set, which is
loaded into a contiguous region of kernel memory. Virtualized global
variables in the base kernel are linked as normal, but those in modules
are copied and relocated to a reserved portion of the kernel's vnet
region with the help of a the kernel linker.
Virtualized global variables exist in per-vnet memory set up when the
network stack instance is created, and are initialized statically from
the reference copy. Run-time access occurs via an accessor macro, which
converts from the current vnet and requested symbol to a per-vnet
address. When "options VIMAGE" is not compiled into the kernel, normal
global ELF symbols will be used instead and indirection is avoided.
This change restores static initialization for network stack global
variables, restores support for non-global symbols and types, eliminates
the need for many subsystem constructors, eliminates large per-subsystem
structures that caused many binary compatibility issues both for
monitoring applications (netstat) and kernel modules, removes the
per-function INIT_VNET_*() macros throughout the stack, eliminates the
need for vnet_symmap ksym(2) munging, and eliminates duplicate
definitions of virtualized globals under VIMAGE_GLOBALS.

Remove the hidden include of opt_route.h and net/route.h from net/vnet.h.
We need to make sure that both opt_route.h and net/route.h are included
before net/vnet.h because of the way MRT figures out the number of FIBs
from the kernel option. If we do not, we end up with the default number
of 1 when including net/vnet.h and array sizes are wrong.
This does not change the list of files which depend on opt_route.h
but we can identify them now more easily.
