- move a declaration to the top of the function.
- become bug for bug compatible with if (error) lines.

new vfs_getopt()/vfs_copyopt() API. This is intended to be used
later, when there will be filesystems implementing the VFS_NMOUNT
operation. The mount(2) system call will disappear when all
filesystems will be converted to the new API. Documentation will
be committed in a while.

modules (ie. procfs.ko).
When the kernel loads dynamic filesystem module, it looks for any of the
VOP operations specified by the new filesystem that have not been registered
already by the currently known filesystems. If any of such operations exist,
vfs_add_vnops function calls vfs_opv_recalc function, which rebuilds vop_t
vectors for each filesystem and sets all global pointers like ufs_vnops_p,
devfs_specop_p, etc to the new values and then frees the old pointers. This
behavior is bad because there might be already active vnodes whose v_op fields
will be left pointing to the random garbage, leading to inevitable crash soon.

kern_linker.c and rev. 1.237 of vfs_syscalls.c since these are not the
source of the recent panics occuring around kldloading file system
support modules.

The conclusion is that this method really can tell the perfect from the
less than perfect ACPI counters.
It is in fact probably a bit more discriminative than that, but we
will rather condemn some otherwise perfect counters to the slightly
slower "-safe" version, than certify a counter as perfect which
will let us down later.
Many thanks to all the people who sent email reports!
where a sysctl within 20 seconds of a cache_drain could yield negative "USED"
counts.
Also, grab the uma_mtx while in the sysctl handler. This hadn't caused
problems yet because Giant is held all the time.
