unload time.

counter register in-CPU.
This is to be used as a fast "timer", where linearity is more important
than time, and multiple lines in the linearity caused by multiple CPUs
in an SMP machine is not a problem.
This adds no code whatsoever to the FreeBSD kernel until it is actually
used, and then as a single-instruction inline routine (except for the
80386 and 80486 where it is some more inline code around nanotime(9).

linux_sigset_t by updating the linux_sigframe struct so as to include
linux's "extramask" field. This field contains the upper 32-bits of
the sigset. extramask sits behind a linux_fpstate struct, which I've
defined primarily for padding purposes.
While we're here, define LINUX_NSIG in terms of LINUX_NBPW (32) and
LINUX_NSIG_WORDS (2).
This fixes problems where threaded apps would accumulate a large
number of zombies. This was happening because the exit signal resides
in the upper 32-bits of the sigset and was never getting unmasked by
the manager thread after the first child exited.

The SVR4 and iBCS2 modules continue to have a minsigstksz of

Previously we had to include <machine/param.h> or <sys/param.h> bogusly
due to the fact that <sys/socket.h> CMSG macros needed the ALIGN macro,
which was defined in param.h. However, including param.h was a disaster
for namespace pollution.
This solution, as contributed by shin a while ago, fixes it elegantly
by wrapping the definitions around some namespace pollution preventer
definitions.
This patch was long overdue.
This should allow any network programmer to use <sys/socket.h> as
before.
