2c1bb20746 Introduce a callout_drain() function. This acts in the same manner as
callout_stop(), except that if the callout being stopped is currently
in progress, it blocks attempts to reset the callout and waits until the
callout is completed before it returns.

This makes it possible to clean up callout-using code safely, e.g.,
without potentially freeing memory which is still being used by a callout.

6e8666a5a8 Looks like I misread the callout code. We do not seem to hold the
callout lock while the callout is happening.  So the serialization
that I thought was happening isn't.  Therefore, remove the part of the
bugs that says this.  Leave in the other bug as it is very hard to
work around (impossible?).

Fix various typos.

Also note that timeout/untimeout are considered to be the old interface and
the callout interface should be used insetad.

de78273e9c Document the implications of the callout_stop() returning 0 if the
callout has finished or is in progress.  Also document that the
locking of the callout code for FreeBSD 5 has eliminated the 'or is in
progress' clause as a possibility and that such elimination is an
accident of the implementation and shouldn't be relied upon.

6f2d81026c - callout_stop() now returns an integer value instead of void so
describe it.
- Add a return values section.

c1f3e4bf21 Removed whitespace at end-of-line; no content changes. I simply did
cd src/share; find man[1-9] -type f|xargs perl -pi -e 's/[ \t]+$//'

BTW, what editors are the culprits? I'm using vim and it shows
me whitespace at EOL in troff files with a thick blue block...

20c4d417bc Fixed some bugs (one serious one: timeouts were claimed to be executed at
spl0) and some bitrot (the not-so-new callout_init/stop/reset functions
were not mentioned; the callout_activate/deactivate/pending macros are
still not mentioned).

06dcc5a953 Fixed synopsis again. Too much was blown away by splatting a NetBSD-
based version over the top of the FreeBSD version in rev.1.6.

Nuked the confusing timeout_func_t typedef.  It will go away in <systm.h>
later.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.
