785c4f1a3d Clean up this new manual page. This delta includes content and
whitespace changes, which should not be a problem because this
is only the second revision of the file and translators are

2.   "brackets" -> "angle brackets" when referring to < and >.

3.  Clean up the bit about creating the usage() message.  After clarifying a
couple of points the sentence became rather long, and rather poor English, so
it was converted to a enumerated list instead.

bd3cdc3105 These patches implement dynamic sysctls. It's possible now to add
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.

1c171d7474 Abuse .Fn for macros better (don't hand-format the parameter string by
quoting it all and adding commas).

Don't say that the expression in KASSERT() is an int.  It is a collection
of tokens forming a C expression that can be compared with 0.

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.
