Make the kern_fsync() function public, so that it can be used by other
parts of the kernel. Fix up existing consumers to make use of it.

FreeBSD support NX bit on X86_64 processors out of the box, for i386 emulation
use READ_IMPLIES_EXEC flag, introduced in r302515.
While here move common part of mmap() and mprotect() code to the files in compat/linux
to reduce code dupcliation between Linuxulator's.

In Linux if this flag is set, PROT_READ implies PROT_EXEC for mmap().
Linux/i386 set this flag automatically if the binary requires executable stack.
READ_IMPLIES_EXEC flag will be used in the next Linux mmap() commit.
[1] Remove unneeded sockaddr conversion before kern_recvit() call as the from
argument is used to record result (the source address of the received message) only.
[2] In Linux the type of msg_namelen member of struct msghdr is signed but native
msg_namelen has a unsigned type (socklen_t). So use the proper storage to fetch fromlen
from userspace and than check the user supplied value and return EINVAL if it is less
than 0 as a Linux do.

Rename the functions to reflect current use of the functions, instead
of the historic KSE conventions:

cpu_set_upcall_kse -> cpu_set_upcall (for new threads creation)

intention of the POSIX IEEE Std 1003.1TM-2008/Cor 1-2013.
A robust mutex is guaranteed to be cleared by the system upon either
thread or process owner termination while the mutex is held. The next
mutex locker is then notified about inconsistent mutex state and can
execute (or abandon) corrective actions.
The patch mostly consists of small changes here and there, adding
neccessary checks for the inconsistent and abandoned conditions into
existing paths. Additionally, the thread exit handler was extended to
iterate over the userspace-maintained list of owned robust mutexes,
unlocking and marking as terminated each of them.
The list of owned robust mutexes cannot be maintained atomically
synchronous with the mutex lock state (it is possible in kernel, but
is too expensive). Instead, for the duration of lock or unlock
operation, the current mutex is remembered in a special slot that is
also checked by the kernel at thread termination.
Kernel must be aware about the per-thread location of the heads of
robust mutex lists and the current active mutex slot. When a thread
touches a robust mutex for the first time, a new umtx op syscall is
issued which informs about location of lists heads.
The umtx sleep queues for PP and PI mutexes are split between
non-robust and robust.
Somewhat unrelated changes in the patch:
1. Style.
2. The fix for proper tdfind() call use in umtxq_sleep_pi() for shared
pi mutexes.
3. Removal of the userspace struct pthread_mutex m_owner field.
4. The sysctl kern.ipc.umtx_vnode_persistent is added, which controls
the lifetime of the shared mutex associated with a vnode' page.

This is a minor follow-up to r297422, prompted by a Coverity warning. (It's
not a real defect, just a code smell.) OSD slot array reservations are an
array of pointers (void **) but were cast to void* and back unnecessarily.
Keep the correct type from reservation to use.
osd.9 is updated to match, along with a few trivial igor fixes.

and replace crcopysafe by crcopy as crcopysafe is is not intended to be
safe in a threaded environment, it drops PROC_LOCK() in while() that
can lead to unexpected results, such as overwrite kernel memory.
In my POV crcopysafe() needs special attention. For now I do not see
any problems with this function, but who knows.

The set_robust_list system call request the kernel to record the head
of the list of robust futexes owned by the calling thread. The head
argument is the list head to record.
The get_robust_list system call should return the head of the robust
list of the thread whose thread id is specified in pid argument.
The list head should be stored in the location pointed to by head
argument.
In contrast, our implemenattion of get_robust_list system call copies
the known portion of memory pointed by recorded in set_robust_list
system call pointer to the head of the robust list to the location
pointed by head argument.
So, it is possible for a local attacker to read portions of kernel
memory, which may result in a privilege escalation.
