from struct proc, which are now unused (p_nthread already was).
Remove process flag P_KTHREADP which was untested and only set
in vfs_aio.c (it should use kthread_create). Move the yield
system call to kern_synch.c as kern_threads.c has been removed
completely.

not return ENOEXEC. This is because image activators should return -1 if they
don't claim an image. They should return ENOEXEC if they do claim it,
but cannot load it due to sime problem with the image. This bug was
preventing static compilation of the osf/1 module. I'm surprised it
did not cause more problems.
EOI after the ithread runs, send the EOI when we get the interrupt and
disable the source. After the ithread is run, the source is renabled.
Also, add isa_handle_fast_intr() which handles fast interrupts by sending
an EOI after the handler is run.
This fixes the chronic missing interrupt problems under heavy NFS load
on my UP1000 and should result in greater stability for alphas which
route all irqs through an isa pic.
Discussed with: jhb, bde (sending non-specific EOIs early was bde's idea)
like the args to the config space accessors these functions replaced.
This reduces the likelyhood of overflow when the args are used in
macros on the alpha. This prevents memory management faults when
probing the pci bus on sables, multias and nonames.

- Use ACPI_PHYSICAL_ADDRESS
- RSDT -> XSDT
- FACP -> FADT
- No APIC table support
- Don't install a global EC handler; this has bad side-effects
(it invokes _REG in *all* EC spaces in the namespace!)
- Check for PCI bus instances already existing before adding them
but a hack! Add `flags 0x8000' to the psm driver to enable it.
The psm driver will try to get out of out-of-sync situation
by disabling the mouse and immediately enable it again.
If you are seeing this out-of-sync problem because of an
incompetent(?!) KVM switch, this hack will NOT be good
for you. However, if you are occasionally seeing the
problem because of lost mouse interrupt, this might help.
lock. Otherwise, if we block on the backing mutex while releasing the
allproc lock, then when we resume, we will be at SRUN, and we will stay
that way all the way through cpu_exit. As a result, our parent will never
harvest us.
