The previous behavior of leaving VI_OWEINACT vnodes on the active list without
a hold count is eliminated. Hold count is kept and inactive processing gets
explicitly deferred by setting the VI_DEFINACT flag. The syncer is then
responsible for vdrop.

Combined with earlier nstart/nend removal it allows to remove several locks
from request path of GEOM and few other places. It would be cool if we had
more SMP-friendly statistics, but this helps too.

Those counters were abused for decade to workaround broken orphanization
process in different classes by delaying the call while there are active
requests. But from one side it did not close all the races, while from
another was quite expensive on SMP due to trashing twice per request cache
lines of consumer and provider and requiring locks. It lost its sense
after I manually went through all the GEOM classes in base and made
orphanization wait for either provider close or request completion.
Consumer counters are still used under INVARIANTS to detect premature
consumer close and detach. Provider counters are removed completely.

This code was not actively maintained since it was introduced 10 years ago.
It lacks support for many later GEOM features, such as direct dispatch,
unmapped I/O, stripesize/stripeoffset, resize, etc. Plus it is the only
remaining use of GEOM nstart/nend request counters, used there to implement
live insertion/removal, questionable by itself. Plus, as number of people
commented, GEOM is not the best place for I/O scheduler, since it has
limited information about layers both above and below it, required for
efficient scheduling. Plus with the modern shift to SSDs there is just no
more significant need for this kind of scheduling.

Change the "count_until_fail" option of gnop, now it enables the failing
rating instead of setting them to 100%.
The original patch introduced the new flag, which sets the fail/rate to 100%
after N requests. In some cases, we don't want to have 100% of failure
probabilities. We want to start failing at some point.
For example, on the early stage, we may like to allow some read/writes requests
before having some requests delayed - when we try to mount the partition,
or when we are trying to import the pool.
Another case may be to check how scrub in ZFS will behave on different stages.
This allows us to cover more cases.
The previous behavior still may be configured.

pp->private just can not be NULL in those places.
In g_disk_start() and g_disk_ioctl() both dp != NULL and !dp->d_destroyed
should always be true if disk_gone() and disk_destroy() are used properly,
since GEOM does not send requests to errored providers. If the protocol is
not followed, then no amount of additional checks here give real safety.
In g_disk_access() though the checks are useful, since GEOM blocks only
new opens for errored providers, but allows closes. It should not happen
if disk_gone() and disk_destroy() are used properly, but may otherwise.
To improve cases when disk_gone() is not used, call it from disk_destroy().
It does not give full guaranties, but it errors the provider and makes
GEOM block unwanted requests at least after some race.

The Zstd format bumps the CLOOP major number to 4 to avoid incompatibility
with older systems. Support in geom_uzip(4) is conditional on the ZSTDIO
kernel option, which is enabled in amd64 GENERIC, but not all in-tree
configurations.
mkuzip(8) was modified slightly to always initialize the nblocks + 1'th
offset in the CLOOP file format. Previously, it was only initialized in the
case where the final compressed block happened to be unaligned w.r.t.
DEV_BSIZE. The "Fake" last+1 block change in r298619 means that the final
compressed block's 'blen' was never correct unless the compressed uzip image
happened to be BSIZE-aligned. This happened in about 1 out of every 512
cases. The zlib and lzma decompressors are probably tolerant of extra trash
following the frame they were told to decode, but Zstd complains that the
input size is incorrect.
Correspondingly, geom_uzip(4) was modified slightly to avoid trashing the
nblocks + 1'th offset when it is known to be initialized to a good value.
This corrects the calculated final real cluster compressed length to match
that printed by mkuzip(8).
mkuzip(8) was refactored somewhat to reduce code duplication and increase
ease of adding other compression formats.
* Input block size validation was pulled out of individual compression
init routines into main().
* Init routines now validate a user-provided compression level or select
an algorithm-specific default, if none was provided.
* A new interface for calculating the maximal compressed size of an
incompressible input block was added for each driver. The generic code
uses it to validate against MAXPHYS as well as to allocate compression
result buffers in the generic code.
* Algorithm selection is now driven by a table lookup, to increase ease of
adding other formats in the future.
mkuzip(8) gained the ability to explicitly specify a compression level with
'-C'. The prior defaults -- 9 for zlib and 6 for lzma -- are maintained.
The new zstd default is 9, to match zlib.
Rather than select lzma or zlib with '-L' or its absense, respectively, a
new argument '-A <algorithm>' is provided to select 'zlib', 'lzma', or
'zstd'. '-L' is considered deprecated, but will probably never be removed.
All of the new features were documented in mkuzip.8; the page was also
cleaned up slightly.

When it comes to megabytes of text, difference between sbuf_printf() and
sbuf_cat() becomes substantial.
MFC after: 2 weeks
Sponsored by: iXsystems, Inc.
On large systems those sysctls may generate megabytes of output. Before
this change sbuf(9) code was resizing buffer by 4KB each time many times,
generating tons of TLB shootdowns. Unfortunately in this case existing
sbuf_new_for_sysctl() mechanism, supposed to help with this issue, is not
applicable, since all the sbuf writes are done in different kernel thread.
This change improves situation in two ways:
- on first sysctl call, not providing any output buffer, it sets special
sbuf drain function, just counting the data and so not needing big buffer;
- on second sysctl call it uses as initial buffer size value saved on
previous call, so that in most cases there will be no reallocation, unless
GEOM topology changed significantly.
