- Introducing the possibility of using locks different than mutexes
for the knlist locking. In order to do this, we add three arguments to
knlist_init() to specify the functions to use to lock, unlock and
check if the lock is owned. If these arguments are NULL, we assume
mtx_lock, mtx_unlock and mtx_owned, respectively.
- Using the vnode lock for the knlist locking, when doing kqueue operations
on a vnode. This way, we don't have to lock the vnode while holding a
mutex, in filt_vfsread.

Will be happy: everyone
a DLT_NULL interface. In particular:
1) Consistently use type u_int32_t for the header of a
DLT_NULL device - it continues to represent the address
family as always.
2) In the DLT_NULL case get bpf_movein to store the u_int32_t
in a sockaddr rather than in the mbuf, to be consistent
with all the DLT types.
3) Consequently fix a bug in bpf_movein/bpfwrite which
only permitted packets up to 4 bytes less than the MTU
to be written.
4) Fix all DLT_NULL devices to have the code required to
allow writing to their bpf devices.
5) Move the code to allow writing to if_lo from if_simloop
to looutput, because it only applies to DLT_NULL devices
but was being applied to other devices that use if_simloop
possibly incorrectly.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

(and panic). To try to finish making BPF safe, at the very least,
the BPF descriptor lock really needs to change into a reader/writer
lock that controls access to "settings," and a mutex that controls
access to the selinfo/knote/callout. Also, use of callout_drain()
instead of callout_stop() (which is really a much more widespread
issue).
BPFD_LOCK() when removing a descriptor from an interface descriptor
list. Hold both over the operation, and do a better job at
maintaining the invariant that you can't find partially connected
descriptors on an active interface descriptor list.
This appears to close a race that resulted in the kernel performing
a NULL pointer dereference when BPF sessions are detached during
heavy network activity on SMP systems.
