state where sleeping on a sleep queue is not allowed. The facility
doesn't support recursion but uses a simple private per-thread flag
(TDP_NOSLEEPING). The sleepq_add() function will panic if the flag is
set and INVARIANTS is enabled.
- Use this new facility to replace the g_xup and g_xdown mutexes that were
(ab)used to achieve similar behavior.
- Disallow sleeping in interrupt threads when invoking interrupt handlers.

As it transpires the microoptimization is not measurable in the
real world and the inconsistent statistics confuse users, so revert
the decision.

definition and use of 'mymutex' behind #ifdef WITNESS to avoid the cost
in non-debugging cases. This results in a clear .22% performance win for
512 byte and 1k I/O tests on my SMP test box. Not much, but every bit
counts.

disk I/O processing.
The intent is that the disk driver in its hardware interrupt
routine will simply schedule the bio on the task queue with
a routine to finish off whatever needs done.
The g_up thread will then schedule this routine, the likely
outcome of which is a biodone() which queues the bio on
g_up's regular queue where it will be picked up and processed.
Compared to the using the regular taskqueue, this saves one
contextswitch.
Change our scheduling of the g_up and g_down queues to be water-tight,
at the cost of breaking the userland regression test-shims.

Statistics now default to "on" and can be turned off with
sysctl kern.geom.collectstats=0
Performance impact of statistics collection is on the order of
800 nsec per consumer/provider set on a 700MHz Athlon.
Insted of embedding a struct g_stat in consumers and providers, merely
include a pointer.
Remove a couple of <sys/time.h> includes now unneeded.
Add a special allocator for struct g_stat. This allocator will allocate
entire pages and hand out g_stat functions from there. The "id" field
indicates free/used status.
Add "/dev/geom.stats" device driver whic exports the pages from the
allocator to userland with mmap(2) in read-only mode.
This mmap(2) interface should be considered a non-public interface and
the functions in libgeom (not yet committed) should be used to access
the statistics data.
Add debug.sizeof.g_stat sysctl.
Set the id field of the g_stat when we create consumers and providers.
Remove biocount from consumer, we will use the counters in the g_stat
structure instead. Replace one field which will need to be atomically
manipulated with two fields which will not (stat.nop and stat.nend).
Change add companion field to bio_children: bio_inbed for the exact
same reason.
Don't output the biocount in the confdot output.
Fix KASSERT in g_io_request().
Add sysctl kern.geom.collectstats defaulting to off.
Collect the following raw statistics conditioned on this sysctl:
for each consumer and provider {
total number of operations started.
total number of operations completed.
time last operation completed.
sum of idle-time.
for each of BIO_READ, BIO_WRITE and BIO_DELETE {
number of operations completed.
number of bytes completed.
number of ENOMEM errors.
number of other errors.
sum of transaction time.
