a queue entry field, just copy out the unsigned int that is the trigger
message. In practice, auditd always requested sizeof(unsigned int), so
the extra bytes were ignored, but copying them out was not the intent.

Rework of this area is a pre-requirement for importing e500 support (and
other PowerPC core variations in the future). Mainly the following
headers are refactored so that we can cover for low-level differences between
various machines within PowerPC architecture:
<machine/pcpu.h>
<machine/pcb.h>
<machine/kdb.h>
<machine/hid.h>
<machine/frame.h>
Areas which use the above are adjusted and cleaned up.

- Move the assigment of the socket down before we first need it.
No need to do it at the beginning and then drop out the function
by one of the returns before using it 100 lines further down.
- Use t_maxopd which was assigned the "tcp_mssdflt" for the corrrect
AF already instead of another #ifdef ? : #endif block doing the same.
- Remove an unneeded (duplicate) assignment of mss to t_maxseg just before
we possibly change mss and re-do the assignment without using t_maxseg
in between.

- When searching for affinity search backwards in the tree from the last
cpu we ran on while the thread still has affinity for the group. This
can take advantage of knowledge of shared L2 or L3 caches among a
group of cores.
- When searching for the least loaded cpu find the least loaded cpu via
the least loaded path through the tree. This load balances system bus
links, individual cache levels, and hyper-threaded/SMT cores.
- Make the periodic balancer recursively balance the highest and lowest
loaded cpu across each link.
Add support for cpusets:
- Convert the cpuset to a simple native cpumask_t while the kernel still
only supports cpumask.
- Pass the derived cpumask down through the cpu_search functions to
restrict the result cpus.
- Make the various steal functions resilient to failure since all threads
can not run on all cpus any longer.
General improvements:
- Precisely track the lowest priority thread on every runq with
tdq_setlowpri(). Before it was more advisory but this ended up having
pathological behaviors.
- Remove many #ifdef SMP conditions to simplify the code.
- Get rid of the old cumbersome tdq_group. This is more naturally
expressed via the cpu_group tree.

tree structure that encodes the level of cache sharing and other
properties.
- Provide several convenience functions for creating one and two level
cpu trees as well as a default flat topology. The system now always
has some topology.
- On i386 and amd64 create a seperate level in the hierarchy for HTT
and multi-core cpus. This will allow the scheduler to intelligently
load balance non-uniform cores. Presently we don't detect what level
of the cache hierarchy is shared at each level in the topology.
- Add a mechanism for testing common topologies that have more information
than the MD code is able to provide via the kern.smp.topology tunable.
This should be considered a debugging tool only and not a stable api.

soon.
- Lists of cpus may be specified with -l with ranges specified as low-high and
commas between individual cpus and ranges. ie -l 0-2,4,6-8.
- cpuset can modified -p pids, -t tids, or -s cpusetids.
- cpuset can -g get the current mask for any of the above.

and assignment.
- Add a reference to a struct cpuset in each thread that is inherited from
the thread that created it.
- Release the reference when the thread is destroyed.
- Add prototypes for syscalls and macros for manipulating cpusets in
sys/cpuset.h
- Add syscalls to create, get, and set new numbered cpusets:
cpuset(), cpuset_{get,set}id()
- Add syscalls for getting and setting affinity masks for cpusets or
individual threads: cpuid_{get,set}affinity()
- Add types for the 'level' and 'which' parameters for the cpuset. This
will permit expansion of the api to cover cpu masks for other objects
identifiable with an id_t integer. For example, IRQs and Jails may be
coming soon.
- The root set 0 contains all valid cpus. All thread initially belong to
cpuset 1. This permits migrating all threads off of certain cpus to
reserve them for special applications.

- Fix a malloc buffer overrun: Use a while loop to check whether
the string buffer is big enough after resizing, since doubling
