I have fixed a couple of style(9) deviations. I have some followup
commits to fix a couple of non-style things.
'dwatch'. The new commands install hardware watchpoints if supported
by the architecture and if there are enough registers to cover the
desired memory area.

directories. When enabled via "options UFS_DIRHASH", in-core hash
arrays are maintained for large directories. These allow all
directory operations to take place quickly instead of requiring
long linear searches. For now anyway, dirhash is not enabled by
default.
The in-core hash arrays have a memory requirement that is approximately
half the size of the size of the on-disk directory file. A number
of new sysctl variables allow control over which directories get
hashed and over the maximum amount of memory that dirhash will use:
vfs.ufs.dirhash_minsize
The minimum on-disk directory size for which hashing should be
used. The default is 2560 (2.5k).
vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem
The system-wide maximum total memory to be used by dirhash data
structures. The default is 2097152 (2MB).
The current amount of memory being used by dirhash is visible
through the read-only sysctl variable vfs.ufs.dirhash_maxmem.
Finally, some extra sanity checks that are enabled by default, but
which may have an impact on performance, can be disabled by setting
vfs.ufs.dirhash_docheck to 0.

Also removed some spl's and added some VM mutexes, but they are not actually
used yet, so this commit does not really make any operational changes
to the system.
vm_page.c relates to vm_page_t manipulation, including high level deactivation,
activation, etc... vm_pageq.c relates to finding free pages and aquiring
exclusive access to a page queue (exclusivity part not yet implemented).
And the world still builds... :-)
(this commit is just the first stage). Also add various GIANT_ macros to
formalize the removal of Giant, making it easy to test in a more piecemeal
fashion. These macros will allow us to test fine-grained locks to a degree
before removing Giant, and also after, and to remove Giant in a piecemeal
fashion via sysctl's on those subsystems which the authors believe can
operate without Giant.
1. Add SA_IO_TIMEOUT as an option (4 minutes default) to cover reads,
writes, wfm, test unit ready.
2. Add internal SCSIOP_TIMEOUT (e.g., for mode sense) at 1 minute. This
should not require an option, but is cleaner to parameterize.

.cvsignore file for [A-Za-z]* to keep these directories around rather
than waste a file on .keepme. This should also make people's built
trees place nice with CVS.

- Don't grab Giant for addupc_task() as it isn't needed.
Reported by: tegge (signal race), bde (addupc_task a while back)
startup routine more closely matches that of alpha and ia64. At some
point the common mutexes shared across all platforms probably should move
into sys/kern_mutex.c.
