mutex profiling code. As with existing mutex profiling, measurement
is done with respect to mtx_lock() instances in the code, as opposed
to specific mutexes. In particular, measure two things:
(1) Lock contention. How often did this mtx_lock() call get made and
have to sleep (or almost sleep) waiting for the lock. This helps
identify the "victims" of contention.
(2) Hold contention. How often, while the lock was held by a thread
as a result of this mtx_lock(), did another thread try to acquire
the same mutex. This helps identify the causes of contention.
I'm currently exploring adding measurement of "time waited for the
lock", but the current implementation has proven useful to me so far
so I figured I'd commit it so others could try it out. Note that this
increases the size of mutexes when MUTEX_PROFILING is enabled, so you
might find you need to further bump UMA_BOOT_PAGES. Fixes welcome.

Combined these changes eliminate nonsense messages from the kernel on swap-

For some very unclear reason this device contains a FTDI 8U232AM USB->COM
adapter, but reports different device id than original 8U232AM. At the same

The uidinfo code appears to be MPSAFE, and is referenced without Giant
elsewhere. While this grab of Giant was only made in fairly rare
circumstances (actually GC'ing on refcount==0), grabbing Giant here
potentially introduces lock order issues with any locks held by the
caller. So this probably won't help performance much unless you change
credentials a lot in an application, and leave a lot of file descriptors
and cached credentials around. However, it simplifies locking down
consumers of the credential interfaces.

to a new prison_complete() task run by a task queue. This removes
a requirement for grabbing Giant in crfree(). Embed the 'struct task'
in 'struct prison' so that we don't have to allocate memory from
prison_free() (which means we also defer the FREE()).
With this change, I believe grabbing Giant from crfree() can now be
removed, but need to check the uidinfo code paths.
To avoid header pollution, move the definition of 'struct task'
to _task.h, and recursively include from taskqueue.h and jail.h; much
preferably to all files including jail.h picking up a requirement to
include taskqueue.h.

In case no real/physical IEEE 802 address is available, both the expired
"draft-leach-uuids-guids-01" (section "4. Node IDs when no IEEE 802
network card is available") and RFC 2518 (section "6.4.1 Node Field
Generation Without the IEEE 802 Address") recommend (quoted from RFC
2518):
"The ideal solution is to obtain a 47 bit cryptographic quality random
number, and use it as the low 47 bits of the node ID, with the _most_
significant bit of the first octet of the node ID set to 1. This bit
is the unicast/multicast bit, which will never be set in IEEE 802
addresses obtained from network cards; hence, there can never be a
conflict between UUIDs generated by machines with and without network
cards."
Unfortunately, this incorrectly explains how to implement this and
the FreeBSD UUID generator code inherited this generation bug from
the broken reference code in the standards draft. They should instead
specify the "_least_ significant bit of the first octet of the node ID"
as the multicast bit in a memory and hexadecimal string representation
of a 48-bit IEEE 802 MAC address.
This standards bug arised from a false interpretation, as the multicast
bit is actually the _most_ significant bit in IEEE 802.3 (Ethernet)
_transmission order_ of an IEEE 802 MAC address. The standards authors
forgot that the bitwise order of an _octet_ from a MAC address _memory_
and hexadecimal string representation is still always from left (MSB,
bit 7) to right (LSB, bit 0).
Fortunately, this UUID generation bug could have occurred on systems
without any Ethernet NICs only.
