descriptor for the LDT) is populated. md_ldt is used by context-switch
code as indicator that LDT segment register shall be loaded with
GUSERLDT segment instead of 0, so context switch at the wrong time may
cause attempt to load non-populated descriptor.
Use store with the barrier to prevent other CPUs from seeing updated
md_ldt but not seeing updated md_ldt_sd. Multithreaded process may
context-switch to another thread of the process on another CPU and read
md_ldt.

- Add support for handling TLS area address in kernel space.
From the userland point of view get/set operations are
performed using sysarch(2) call.
Pass the channel argument as a real argument and not through
RXON. The RXON version seems to have problem with both the older
228.57.2.23 firmware and the latest 228.61.2.24 version resulting
in device initialization errors like:
wpa_supplicant[2928]: Failed to initiate AP scan.
kernel: firmware error log:
kernel: error type = "SYSASSERT" (0x00000005)
kernel: program counter = 0x0000147C
kernel: source line = 0x0000058B
kernel: error data = 0x0000058B00000000
kernel: branch link = 0x0000145A00001492
kernel: interrupt link = 0x000006DE00000000
kernel: time = 7310
...
kernel: iwn0: iwn_config: could not set TX power
kernel: iwn0: iwn_init_locked: could not configure device, error 35
By passing the current channel to hal->set_txpower() the firmware
error is fixed, at least for the 4965 chipset of my Thinkpad and
the ones tested by Bernhard.

correctly. The 256MB segment is formed by taking the top 4 bits
of the address of the instruction in the "branch delay" slot
as opposed to the 'J' or 'JAL' instruction itself.

While the name is pretentious, a good explanation of its targets is
reported in this 17 months old presentation e-mail:
http://lists.freebsd.org/pipermail/freebsd-arch/2008-August/008452.html
In order to implement it, the sq_type in sleepqueues is mandatory and not
only compiled along with INVARIANTS option. Additively, a new sleepqueue
function, sleepq_type() is added, returning the type of the sleepqueue
linked to a wchan.
Three new sysctls are added in order to configure the thread:
debug.deadlkres.slptime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.blktime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.sleepfreq
rappresenting the thresholds for sleep and block time that will lead to
a deadlock matching (when exceeded), while the sleepfreq rappresents the
number of seconds between 2 consecutive thread runnings.
In order to enable the deadlock resolver thread recompile your kernel
with the option DEADLKRES.

- Get rid of ugly TARGET_CPU_DEFAULT default. 16 is MASK_DSP
and was set there due to my ignroance.
make universe, split the logic into two parts:
- 1st to build worlds and generate kernel configs like LINT.
- 2nd to build kernels for a given TARGET architecture correctly
finding all newly generated configs, not knowing anything about
LINT anymore. (*)
(*) If you know better/cleaner/... ways to do this, let me know.

sys/conf/makeLINT.mk, which includes LINT and sets options VIMAGE
so that we will have VIMAGE LINT builds[1]. For now only do it for
those two architectures to avoid massive universe times for archs,
where people will less likely use VIMAGE or not at all.

sys/conf/makeLINT.mk to only do certain things for certain
architectures.
Note that neither arm nor mips have the Makefile there, thus
essentially not (yet) supporting LINT. This would enable them
do add special treatment to sys/conf/makeLINT.mk as well chosing
one of the many configurations as LINT.
This is a hack of doing this and keeping it in a separate commit
will allow us to more easily identify and back it out.
