- Improve load long-term load balancer by always IPIing exactly once.
Previously the delay after rebalancing could cause problems with
uneven workloads.
- Allow nice to have a linear effect on the interactivity score. This
allows negatively niced programs to stay interactive longer. It may be
useful with very expensive Xorg servers under high loads. In general
it should not be necessary to alter the nice level to improve interactive
response. We may also want to consider never allowing positively niced
processes to become interactive at all.
- Initialize ccpu to 0 rather than 0.0. The decimal point was leftover
from when the code was copied from 4bsd. ccpu is 0 in ULE because ULE
only exports weighted cpu values.

changes the units from seconds to the value of 'ticks' when swapped
in/out. ULE does not have a periodic timer that scans all threads in
the system and as such maintaining a per-second counter is difficult.
- Change computations requiring the unit in seconds to subtract ticks
and divide by hz. This does make the wraparound condition hz times
more frequent but this is still in the range of several months to
years and the adverse effects are minimal.

In particular:
- smp_tlb_mtx is no longer used, so it is axed.
- smp rendezvous lock isn't really a leaf spin-mutex. Its bad placement in
the table, however, has been the source of a false positive LOR reporting
with the dt_lock. However, smp rendezvous lock would have had sched_lock
there for older lock, so it wasn't still a leaf lock.
- allpmaps is only used in ia32 architecture, so it is inserted in the
appropriate stub.
Addictionally:
- kse_zombie_lock is no longer present, so its definition is axed out.
- zombie_lock doesn't need to have an exported symbol, so just let's it be
declared as static.

- Increment and decrement of sc->write_in_progress are not atomic and
this may cause console hang.

was used in assembler code in such a way that no unresolved relocation
records were generated, so ld didn't flag the problem. You can see
this with an 'nm' of the kernel. There will be 'U MAXCPU' on SMP systems.
The impact of this is that the intrcount/intrnames arrays do not have
the intended amount of space reserved. This could lead to interesting
problems due to the arrays being present in the middle of kernel code.
An overflow would be rather interesting as executable code would be used
as per-cpu incrementing interrupt counters.
This fixes it for now by exporting MAXCPU to the assembler. A better fix
might be to define these data structures in C - they're only referenced
in the kernel from C code these days anyway.

o add driver callback to handle notification of beacon changes;
this is required for devices that manage beacon frames themselves
(devices must override the default handler which does nothing)
o move beacon update-related flags from ieee80211com to the beacon
offsets storage (or handle however a driver wants)
o expand beacon offsets structure with members needed for 11h/dfs
and appie's
o change calling convention for ieee80211_beacon_alloc and
ieee80211_beacon_update
o add overlapping bss support for 11g; requires driver to pass
beacon frames from overlapping bss up to net80211 which is not
presently done by any driver
o move HT beacon contents update to a routine in the HT code area

- p_sflag was mostly protected by PROC_LOCK rather than the PROC_SLOCK or
previously the sched_lock. These bugs have existed for some time.
- Allow swapout to try each thread in a process individually and then
swapin the whole process if any of these fail. This allows us to move
most scheduler related swap flags into td_flags.
- Keep ki_sflag for backwards compat but change all in source tools to
use the new and more correct location of P_INMEM.
