d40d033ac0 Commit a message to UPDATING indicating that during network stack locking
merges, debug.mpsafenet will no longer be safe to use, and that it should
be turned off (which is the default).  I will commit a follow-up message
to UPDATING (and post to freebsd-current) when it's safe to turn it on,
with a description of under what circumstances it is safe to use.

ec9b318eaf Change time_t from a 32-bit value to a 64-bit value, on FreeBSD/sparc64
only.  This is a  MAJOR  incompatible change for the sparc64 platform,
but will not effect FreeBSD on other architectures.

Reviewed by:	imp for UPDATING, freebsd-sparc for the change itself.

3f631d528c Add the most vital piece of information WRT upgrading past the
statfs changes: you must have COMPAT_FREEBSD4 in your kernel
config file. Everything else is documented procedure and will
not save your ass if you don't have the option.

9bf40ede4a Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.
