underlying physical sector size when aligning I/O transfer sizes.
It cannot assume 512 bytes.
We assume the underlying sector size is a power of 2. If it isn't,
mmap() will break badly anyway (in the same way mmap broke with NFS
when NFS tried to cache piecemeal write ranges in buffers, before
we enforced read-buffer-before-write-piecemeal for NFS).

Swap space can be freed from an interrupt and so swap reservation and
freeing must occur at splvm.
Add swap_pager_reserve() code to support a new swap pre-reservation
capability for the VN device.
Generally cleanup the swap code by simplifying the swp_pager_meta_build()
static function and consolidating the SWAPBLK_NONE test from a bit test
to an absolute compare. The bit test was left over from a rejected
swap allocation scheme that was not ultimately committed. A few other
minor cleanups were also made.
Reorganize the swap strategy code, again for VN support, to not
reallocate swap when writing as this messes up pre-reservation and
can fragment I/O unnecessarily as VN-baesd disk is messed around with.

Replace various VM related page count calculations strewn over the
VM code with inlines to aid in readability and to reduce fragility
in the code where modules depend on the same test being performed
to properly sleep and wakeup.
Split out a portion of the page deactivation code into an inline
in vm_page.c to support vm_page_dontneed().
add vm_page_dontneed(), which handles the madvise MADV_DONTNEED
feature in a related commit coming up for vm_map.c/vm_object.c. This
code prevents degenerate cases where an essentially active page may
be rotated through a subset of the paging lists, resulting in premature
disposal.
It's GPL'ed of course, but looking over it tonight I learned of Yet Another
Fast EtherLink XL Adapter: the 3c980C server adapter. This is basically
an updated version of the 3c980 that uses the Tornado ASIC instead of the
earlier Hurricane ASIC. The only change here is to add the new PCI device
ID (0x9805) and corresponding table entries.
requiring the user to figure it out. So, if you comment out all but the
machine type you are using, you automatically get the bus code just for
your system. (eg DEC_EB164 implies cia, etc). Multiple machine types
still pulls in the appropriate busses. This means, take things like
'controller cia0' out of your config.

Removed diskerr()'s unused d_name arg and updated callers. This fixes
warnings caused by the arg having the wrong type (not const enough).
The arg was also wrong (a full name instead of a short one) for calls
from from subr_diskmbr.c and pc98/diskslice_machdep.c.

random-seekable devices. This lets dd(1) know it can seek on them. It
also affects spec_vnopen() (IIRC), but only makes the path of execution smaller,
and does not change its behavior. This is when securelevel >= 2.
