remove net_osdep.h along with all references to it.
Longer term we may want to kill off if_name() entierly since all modern
BSDs have if_xname variables rendering it unnecessicary.
Remove the README file which warns against cosmetic or local only
changes. FreeBSD committers should now feel free to work on the
IPv6 and IPSec code without fetters. The KAME mailing lists still

function, pru_close, to notify protocols that the file descriptor or
other consumer of a socket is closing the socket. pru_abort is now a
notification of close also, and no longer detaches. pru_detach is no
longer used to notify of close, and will be called during socket
tear-down by sofree() when all references to a socket evaporate after
an earlier call to abort or close the socket. This means detach is now
an unconditional teardown of a socket, whereas previously sockets could
persist after detach of the protocol retained a reference.
This faciliates sharing mutexes between layers of the network stack as
the mutex is required during the checking and removal of references at
the head of sofree(). With this change, pru_detach can now assume that
the mutex will no longer be required by the socket layer after
completion, whereas before this was not necessarily true.

( and where appropriate the destruction) of the pcb mutex to the init/finit
functions of the pcb zones.
This allows locking of the pcb entries and race condition free comparison
of the generation count.
Rearrange locking a bit to avoid extra locking operation to update the generation
count in in_pcballoc(). (in_pcballoc now returns the pcb locked)
I am planning to convert pcb list handling from a type safe to a reference count
model soon. ( As this allows really freeing the PCBs)

be caught by the sanity check at the function entry. Null "m" here
means a very unusual condition of a totally broken mbuf chain (wrong
m_pkthdr.len or whatever), so we can just page fault later.

in such special places incomplete ifaddrs should never be linked
to system-wide data structures. Therefore we can eliminate all the
superfluous checks for "ifa->ifa_addr != NULL" and get ready
to the system crashing honestly instead of masking possible bugs.

pru_abort(), pru_detach(), and in_pcbdetach():
- Universally support and enforce the invariant that so_pcb is
never NULL, converting dozens of unnecessary NULL checks into
assertions, and eliminating dozens of unnecessary error handling
cases in protocol code.
- In some cases, eliminate unnecessary pcbinfo locking, as it is no
longer required to ensure so_pcb != NULL. For example, in protocol
shutdown methods, and in raw IP send.
- Abort and detach protocol switch methods no longer return failures,
nor attempt to free sockets, as the socket layer does this.
- Invoke in_pcbfree() after in_pcbdetach() in order to free the
detached in_pcb structure for a socket.

- in_pcbdetach(), which removes the link between an inpcb and its
socket.
- in_pcbfree(), which frees a detached pcb.
Unlike the previous in_pcbdetach(), neither of these functions will
attempt to conditionally free the socket, as they are responsible only
for managing in_pcb memory. Mirror these changes into in6_pcbdetach()
by breaking it into in6_pcbdetach() and in6_pcbfree().
While here, eliminate undesired checks for NULL inpcb pointers in
sockets, as we will now have as an invariant that sockets will always
have valid so_pcb pointers.

rather than an error. Detaches do not "fail", they other occur or
the protocol flags SS_PROTOREF to take ownership of the socket.
soclose() no longer looks at so_pcb to see if it's NULL, relying
entirely on the protocol to decide whether it's time to free the
socket or not using SS_PROTOREF. so_pcb is now entirely owned and
managed by the protocol code. Likewise, no longer test so_pcb in
other socket functions, such as soreceive(), which have no business
digging into protocol internals.
Protocol detach routines no longer try to free the socket on detach,
this is performed in the socket code if the protocol permits it.
In rts_detach(), no longer test for rp != NULL in detach, and
likewise in other protocols that don't permit a NULL so_pcb, reduce
the incidence of testing for it during detach.
