- reorder structures fields (XX_refs) a bit to group fields modified
same time together. According to my tests it gives up to 10%
SMP performance benefit on real workload due to reduced inter-CPU
cache trashing.
- change q_flags from long to int as long is not really needed there and
it's usage with atomics is argued by some people.
- move NGF_WORKQ flag into the separate field q_flags2 as it protected by
queue mutex instead of node writer protection used by the rest of flags.
- move nd_work queue entry to ng_queue structure to which it is more
related and make it STAILQ instead of TAILQ as now it is a classic FIFO.
- remove q_node pointer from ng_queue structure as it is not really needed.
- reimplement item queue using STAILQ instead of own equal implementation.

- change depth field in ng_item from uintptr_t to u_int. It was made

of pptpgre and ksocket nodes for all calls between two peers. This patch
modifies node's API by adding new "session_%04x" hook names support, while
keeping backward compatibility.
Together with appropriate user-level support (by latest mpd5) it gives
huge performance benefits for case of multiple active calls between
two peers because of avoiding data duplication and extra socket processing.
On my benchmarks I have got more then 10 times speedup for the 200
simultaneous PPTP calls between two peers.
In conclusion, it allows now to build effective "clients <=> PAC <=> PNS"
setups.
Before this patch callback returned result of the last finished call chain.
Now it returns last nonzero result from all call chain results in this request.
As soon as this improvement gives reliable error reporting, it is now possible

of request-response operations. That workaround was responsible for returning
ENOBUFS errors to completely unrelated requests working at the same time
on socket.

- Introduce a finit() which is used to initailize the fields of struct file
in such a way that the ops vector is only valid after the data, type,
and flags are valid.
- Protect f_flag and f_count with atomic operations.
- Remove the global list of all files and associated accounting.
- Rewrite the unp garbage collection such that it no longer requires
the global list of all files and instead uses a list of all unp sockets.
- Mark sockets in the accept queue so we don't incorrectly gc them.

sysctl_handle_int is not sizeof the int type you want to export.
The type must always be an int or an unsigned int.
Remove the instances where a sizeof(variable) is passed to stop
people accidently cut and pasting these examples.
In a few places this was sysctl_handle_int was being used on 64 bit
types, which would truncate the value to be exported. In these
cases use sysctl_handle_quad to export them and change the format
to Q so that sysctl(1) can still print them.
