use-after-free over a longer time. Also release the backing pages of
a guarded allocation at free(9) time to reduce the overhead of using
memguard(9). Allow setting and varying the malloc type at run-time.
Add knobs to allow:
- randomly guarding memory
- adding un-backed KVA guard pages to detect underflow and overflow
- a lower limit on the size of allocations that are guarded

This shouldn't happen, of course, but it can. And when it did happen,
the previous check could cause completely-spooled jobs to sit in the
queue for 20 minutes per job. The new code waits until the last-modify
time is not changing, instead of making decisions based on the specific
value of last-modify.

For mptest, add delays to I/O that simulate real disks better. This
also allows us to simulate what happens when a device goes away
with active transactions. It's pretty spectacular.

However, that doesn't explicitly prevent preemption and thread

Fix that.

Currently, because of the uncertainty about whether the unload path is free
of race condition panics, unloads are disallowed by default. Compiling with
CARPMOD_CAN_UNLOAD in CFLAGS removes this anti foot shooting measure.

The buffer for generated pathnames could be too small in some cases. It
happened to be always at least PATH_MAX long, so there was never an overflow
if the resulting pathnames would be usable.
This bug may be abused if a script subjects input from an untrusted source
to pathname generation, which a bad idea anyhow. Most shell scripts do not
work on untrusted data. secteam@ says no advisory is necessary.

The older symbol hiding method breaks for MIPS. This implements
symbol hiding through renaming to a symbol name which is highly
unlikely to clash.
The NetBSD code didn't use byte-swapping macros for endian-awareness;
so it didn't work when cross-compiling a MIPS world on i386/amd64.
This patch includes those (as best as I could figure what they
should be) and has been tested to generate valid MIPS crunch
binaries both cross- and native- compiled.
flag immediately so it's only set once per longcal interval.
Without this, the current AR5416 code will continuously spam NF
calibrations during a periodic calibration if the longcal flag
is set. The longcal flag wouldn't be cleared until the calibration
method indicates that calibrations are "complete".
This drops the rate of NF calibration updates down from "once every
shortcal" (ie, every 100ms) during a periodic calibration, to only
once per "longcal" interval. Spamming NF calibrations every 100ms
caused some potentially horrific issues in noisy environments as
NF calibrations can take longer than 100ms and this spamming can
cause invalid NF calibration results to be read back - leading to
missed beacons, and thus leading to a stuck beacon situation.
Stuck beacons cause interface resets, which restart calibrations.
This means that the longcal calibration runs every 100ms (shortcal)
until all initial calibrations are completed. This spamming can then
cause the above issues which leads to stuck beacons, leading to
interface resets, etc, etc. Quite annoying.
Now we use a regular mutex instead of a spin mutex. When we enter and exit

As read-ahead is heuristic, based on past IO requests, it shouldn't be
problematic. The new default is still smaller then in other OSes.
