The uminor() and umajor() functions have the same use in kernel space as
the minor() and major() functions in userspace. If we ever get rid of
the minor() function in kernel space, we could decide to just expose
minor() and major() to kernel space, making uminor() and umajor()
redundant.
There are two reasons why we want to have uminor() and umajor() in
<sys/types.h>:
- Having them close together prevents them from diverting. Even though
it's unlikely the definitions will change, it's a good habit to have
them at the same place.
- They don't really belong in kern_conf.c. kern_conf.c has been
liberated from dealing with device major and minor number handling.
The device_ids(9) manpage now lists the wrong #include's, because it
should only list <sys/types.h> now. I'm leaving it as it is now, because
I wonder if we should document them anyway. We're probably better off
documenting minor(3) and major(3).
After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.
This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

I've had some reports in the past that opening an already opened TTY
through, for example, /dev/tty can fail with random error codes. Looking
at ttydev_open(), I can see there is a way `error' is returned without
initialising it. Even though I haven't had any confirmation this fixes
the bug, I'll fix it anyway.

To prevent any further confusion about device minor and unit numbers,
we'd better just refer to device unit numbers. Many people still think
the numbers we show inside devfs have any relation to the numbers passed
to make_dev(9), which is not the case.
Discussed with: kib
When I changed kern_conf.c three months ago I made device unit numbers
equal to (unneeded) device minor numbers. We used to require
bitshifting, because there were eight bits in the middle that were
reserved for a device major number. Not very long after I turned
dev2unit(), minor(), unit2minor() and minor2unit() into macro's.
The unit2minor() and minor2unit() macro's were no-ops.
We'd better not remove these four macro's from the kernel, because there
is a lot of (external) code that may still depend on them. For now it's
harmless to remove all invocations of unit2minor() and minor2unit().

- Instead of using a syscall slot (370) just to get a function prototype

Yesterday I got two reports of potential crashes, related to TTY
deallocation during device closure. When a thread is in TF_OPENCLOSE,
draining its output upon closure, we should not allow calls to
tty_rel_free() to happen at the same time. This could cause the TTY to
be torn down twice.

It turns out our old TTY layer (and other implementations) block when
you read() on a PTY master device of which the slave device node has not
been opened yet. Our new implementation just returned 0. This caused
applications like telnetd to die in a very subtle way (when child
processes would open the TTY later than the first call to select()).
Introduce a new flag called PTS_FINISHED, which indicates whether we
should block or bail out of a read() or write() occurs.

One of the features that prevented us from fixing some of the TTY
consumers to work once again, was an interface that allowed consumers to
do the following:
- `Sniff' incoming data, which is used by the snp(4) driver.
- Take direct control of the input and output paths of a TTY, which is
used by ng_tty(4), ppp(4), sl(4), etc.
There's no practical advantage in committing a hooks layer without
having any consumers. In P4 there is a preliminary port of snp(4) and
thompsa@ is busy porting ng_tty(4) to this interface. I already want to
have it in the tree, because this may stimulate others to work on the
remaining modules.

According to style(9), function argument names should only be omitted
for prototypes that are exported to userspace. This means we should
document the function arguments in the TTY header files, because they
are only used in userspace.
While there, change the type of the buffer argument of
ttydisc_rint_bypass() to `const void *' instead of `char *'.

Unlike tty_rel_gone() and tty_rel_sess(), the tty_rel_pgrp() routine
does not unlock the TTY. I once had the idea to make the code call
tty_rel_pgrp() and tty_rel_sess(), picking up the TTY lock once. This
turned out a little harder than I expected, so this is how it works now.
It's a lot easier if we just let tty_rel_pgrp() unlock the TTY, because
the other routines do this anyway.

stop calling it manually.
Add the thread flag TDP_IGNSUSP that allows to bypass the suspension

Actually this assertion is broken because we can free all the head

Fix this by shifting the head if other entries are present and still
