Always compile PFIL_HOOKS into the kernel and remove the associated kernel
...
compile option. All FreeBSD packet filters now use the PFIL_HOOKS API and
thus it becomes a standard part of the network stack.
If no hooks are connected the entire packet filter hooks section and related
activities are jumped over. This removes any performance impact if no hooks
are active.
Both OpenBSD and DragonFlyBSD have integrated PFIL_HOOKS permanently as well.

Clarify what the lockfunc is used for. When it will be called and
...
when it won't be called. The old wording was correct, but not
sufficiently specific to understand when and how it would be called.
The new wording describes the current implementation's usage (which
should be updated if other appropriate times are decided upon),
specifically that it is called only when the load operation is
deferred to keep the locking state consistent. When the operation
isn't deferred, the calling routine is assumed to have a coherent
locking world.

Give kldunload a -f(orce) argument.

Add a MOD_QUIESCE event for modules. This should return error (EBUSY)
of the module is in use.
MOD_UNLOAD should now only fail if it is impossible (as opposed to
inconvenient) to unload the module. Valid reasons are memory references
into the module which cannot be tracked down and eliminated.
When kldunloading, we abandon if MOD_UNLOAD fails, and if -force is
not given, MOD_QUIESCE failing will also prevent the unload.
For backwards compatibility, we treat EOPNOTSUPP from MOD_QUIESCE as
success.
Document that modules should return EOPNOTSUPP for unknown events.
