The purpose of the PMBR is to have the disk appear in use to GPT
unaware utilities (like fdisk). However, if the PMBR has been changed
by a GPT unaware utlity then we must assume that this was deliberate
(as it involved removal of the special slice) and we should not treat
the unmodified GPT-specific sectors as being valid. By lowering the
probe priority in that case, the MBR scheme will take precedence and
the kernel will end up using the MBR and not the GPT. We will still
use the GPT if the kernel does not support the MBR scheme.
comparing a directory to an mtree file more compatible with fmtree when
FreeBSD 9 compatiblity mode is on. This output is clearly intended for
humans not computers, but some tools such as mergemaster's -U option rely
on it.

Extracted from the projects/uefi branch, this change is a reasonable
cleanup and will reduce the diffs to review when bringing in the
UEFI work.

Bring The following revisions from the gcc43 branch[1]:
118360, 118361, 118363, 118576, 119820,
123906, 125246, and 125721.
They all have in common that the were merged long ago
into Apple's gcc and should help improve the general
quality of the compiler and make it easier to bring
new features from Apple's gcc42.

Otherwise, a formatted string with a strlen equal to the remaining
buffer space would have the last character omitted (because vsnprintf
always null-terminates), and later the assert in backtrace_symbols_fmt
would fail.

that the sum of uio_offset and uio_resid is below OFF_MAX using the

enables data cache and other chip-specific features. It was previously
done via an early SYSINIT, but it was being done after pmap and vm setup,
and those setups need to use mutexes. On some modern ARM platforms,
the ldrex/strex instructions that implement mutexes require the data cache
to be enabled.
A nice side effect of enabling caching earlier is that it eliminates the
multi-second pause that used to happen early in boot while physical memory
and pmap and vm were being set up. On boards with 1 GB or more of ram
this pause was very noticible, sometimes 5-6 seconds.
