than the switchin functions to guarantee that we're operating with the
correct tlb entry.
- Remove the post copy/zero tlb invalidations. It is faster to invalidate
an entry that is known to exist and so it is faster to invalidate after
use. However, some architectures implement speculative page table
prefetching so we can not be guaranteed that the invalidated entry is still
invalid when we re-enter any of these functions. As a result of this we
must always invalidate before use to be safe.

a deadlock in several years. Furthermore, the IPI code is currently
protected by a seperate spinlock. This only served to make IPIs twice as
expensive as they had to be which severely slowed down the IPI heavy ULE
scheduler.
SW_INVOL. Assert that one of these is set in mi_switch() and propery
adjust the rusage statistics. This is to simplify the large number of
users of this interface which were previously all required to adjust the
proper counter prior to calling mi_switch(). This also facilitates more
switch and locking optimizations.
- Change all callers of mi_switch() to pass the appropriate paramter and
remove direct references to the process statistics.
mutex profiling code. As with existing mutex profiling, measurement
is done with respect to mtx_lock() instances in the code, as opposed
to specific mutexes. In particular, measure two things:
(1) Lock contention. How often did this mtx_lock() call get made and
have to sleep (or almost sleep) waiting for the lock. This helps
identify the "victims" of contention.
(2) Hold contention. How often, while the lock was held by a thread
as a result of this mtx_lock(), did another thread try to acquire
the same mutex. This helps identify the causes of contention.
I'm currently exploring adding measurement of "time waited for the
lock", but the current implementation has proven useful to me so far
so I figured I'd commit it so others could try it out. Note that this
increases the size of mutexes when MUTEX_PROFILING is enabled, so you
might find you need to further bump UMA_BOOT_PAGES. Fixes welcome.

2. Set swap_pager_full and swap_pager_almost_full to the full state when
the last swap device is removed.
Combined these changes eliminate nonsense messages from the kernel on swap-
less machines.

For some very unclear reason this device contains a FTDI 8U232AM USB->COM
adapter, but reports different device id than original 8U232AM. At the same
time, it reports vendor id of FTDI.

on processor versions which have one or another frequency "forbidden"

don't do the VOP_OPEN again if they upgrade a read-only mount to
read-write.
