Remove eventhandler(schedtail) code and change linux ABI to use newly added
sysvec method.
While here replace explicit comparing of module sysentvec structure with the
newly created process sysentvec to detect the linux ABI.

sf buf allocation, use wakeup() instead of wakeup_one() to notify sf
buffer waiters about free buffer.
sf_buf_alloc() calls msleep(PCATCH) when SFB_CATCH flag was given,
and for simultaneous wakeup and signal delivery, msleep() returns
EINTR/ERESTART despite the thread was selected for wakeup_one(). As
result, we loose a wakeup, and some other waiter will not be woken up.

started to execute, it seems that the corresponding ISR bit in the "old"
local APIC can be cleared. This causes the local APIC interrupt routine
to fail to find an interrupt to service. Rather than panic'ing in this
case, simply return from the interrupt without sending an EOI to the
local APIC. If there are any other pending interrupts in other ISR
registers, the local APIC will assert a new interrupt.

with macros such as (U)INT64_C, (U)INT64_MAX, etc. which assume (u)int64_t
has type (unsigned) long long.
The mode attribute was used because long long wasn't standardised until
C99. Nowadays compilers should support long long and use of the mode
attribute is discouraged according to GCC Internals documentation.
The type definition has to be marked with __extension__ to support
compilation with "-std=c89 -pedantic".

On some architectures UCHAR_MAX and USHRT_MAX had type unsigned int.
However, lacking integer suffixes for types smaller than int, their type
should correspond to that of an object of type unsigned char (or short)
when used in an expression with objects of type int. In that case unsigned
char (short) are promoted to int (i.e. signed) so the type of UCHAR_MAX and
USHRT_MAX should also be int.
Where MIN/MAX constants implicitly have the correct type the suffix has
been removed.
While here, correct some comments.

This reduces the rate of panics when running 'make index' from ~0.6/hour

At a later date this locking will be removed, and for this reason, it is

Oddly, while this doesn't seem to affect the overall rate of panics
(running 'make index' on EC2 t1.micro instances, there are 0.6 +/- 0.1
panics per hour, both before and after this change), it eliminates
vm_fault from panic backtraces, leaving only backtraces going through
vmspace_fork.
