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_fork_handler -> cpu_fork_kthread_handler (for kthreads)
cpu_set_upcall -> cpu_copy_thread (for forks)
cpu_set_upcall_kse -> cpu_set_upcall (for new threads creation)

the loop in linprocfs_doswaps() is useless.
List of the registered filesystems is protected by vfsconf_sx,
not by the Giant. Adjust linprocfs_dofilesystems() correspondingly.

Linux module parameters have a permissions value. If any write bits
are set we are allowed to modify the module parameter runtime. Reflect
this when creating the static SYSCTL nodes.

Bool module parameters are no longer supported, because there is no
equivalent in FreeBSD.
There are two macros available which control the behaviour of the
LinuxKPI module parameters:
- LINUXKPI_PARAM_PARENT allows the consumer to set the SYSCTL parent
where the modules parameters will be created.
- LINUXKPI_PARAM_PREFIX defines a parameter name prefix, which is
added to all created module parameters.

- Revert the change for seed(0) in r300384. I misunderstood the standard
and while our random() implementation in libkern may be improved, it
handles the seed(0) case fine.

- Revert r300377: The implementation claims to return a value
within the range. [1]
- Adjust the value for the case of a zero seed, whihc according
to standards should be equivalent to a seed of value 1.

This is a long standing problem: our random() function returns an
unsigned integer but the rand provided by ndis(4) returns an int.
Scale it down.
MFC after: 2 weeks
In ndis(4) we expose a rand() function that was constantly reseeding
with a time depending function every time it was called. This
essentially broke the reasoning behind seeding, and rendered srand()
a no-op.
Keep it simple, just use random() and srandom() as it's meant to work.
It would have been tempting to just go for arc4random() but we
want to mimic Microsoft, and we don't need crypto-grade randomness
here.
