Mark Johnston 49c3e8c8d1 Enable witness(4) blessings.
witness has long had a facility to "bless" designated lock pairs.  Lock
order reversals between a pair of blessed locks are not reported upon.
We have a number of long-standing false positive LOR reports; start
marking well-understood LORs as blessed.

This change hides reports about UFS vnode locks and the UFS dirhash
lock, and UFS vnode locks and buffer locks, since those are the two that
I observe most often.  In the long term it would be preferable to be
able to limit blessings to a specific site where a lock is acquired,
and/or extend witness to understand why some lock order reversals are
valid (for example, if code paths with conflicting lock orders are
serialized by a third lock), but in the meantime the false positives
frequently confuse users and generate bug reports.

FreeBSD is an operating system used to power modern servers, desktops, and embedded platforms. A large community has continually developed it for more than thirty years. Its advanced networking, security, and storage features have made FreeBSD the platform of choice for many of the busiest web sites and most pervasive embedded networking and storage devices.
