and remove sysctl oids at will during runtime - they don't rely on
linker sets. Also, the node oids can be referenced by more than
one kernel user, which means that it's possible to create partially
overlapping trees.
Add sysctl contexts to help programmers manage multiple dynamic
oids in convenient way.
Please see the manpages for detailed discussion, and example module
for typical use.
This work is based on ideas and code snippets coming from many
people, among them: Arun Sharma, Jonathan Lemon, Doug Rabson,
Brian Feldman, Kelly Yancey, Poul-Henning Kamp and others. I'd like
to specially thank Brian Feldman for detailed review and style
fixes.

These got replaced by BUS_SETUP_INTR().
This once again illustrates an API change without informing -doc, so
that these sort post cleanup actions could've been avoided.
And then people wonder why the docs suck so much at times.

VOP_ABORTOP() went away. at_shutdown() was replaced by undocumented
event handling. Rename remove_dev() here too, and remove the dead

_KPOSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING options to work. Changes:
Change all "posix4" to "p1003_1b". Misnamed files are left
as "posix4" until I'm told if I can simply delete them and add
new ones;
Add _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls for FreeBSD and Linux;
Add man pages for _POSIX_PRIORITY_SCHEDULING system calls;
Add options to LINT;
Minor fixes to P1003_1B code during testing.
NetBSD and then modified by me to reflect some FreeBSD specific
things and to clarify some other pointed based on some old mail
from Bruce Evans about this man page.
incomplete and some are just placeholders but I wanted to try to get
something at least into 2.2 on the grounds that what I have is a lot
better than nothing. I also wanted to commit something which documents
the interfaces in 2.2 before I start updating the documentation for 3.0.
This is a definite 2.2 candidate and is also relavent to 2.1 if people
still care about that branch.
