drivers.
In the giant_XXX wrappers for the device methods of the D_NEEDGIANT
drivers, do not dereference the cdev->si_devsw. It is racing with
the destroy_devl() clearing of the si_devsw. Instead, use the
dev_refthread() and return ENXIO for the destroyed device. [1]
The check for the D_INIT in the prep_cdevsw() was not synchronized with
the call of the fini_cdevsw() in destroy_devl(), that under rapid device
creation/destruction may result in the use of uninitialized cdevsw [2].
Change the protocol for the prep_cdevsw(), requiring it to be called
under dev_mtx, where the check for D_INIT is done.
Do not free the memory allocated for the gianttrick cdevsw while holding
the dev_mtx, put it into the free list to be freed later. Reuse the
d_gianttrick pointer to keep the size and layout of the struct cdevsw
(requested by phk). Free the memory in the dev_unlock_and_free(), and do
all the free after the dev_mtx is dropped (suggested by jhb).

for a configurable number of seconds, spin the disk down. Spin it back
up on the next request.
Notice that the timeout is only armed by a request, so to spin down a
disk you may have to do:
atacontrol spindown ad10 5
dd if=/dev/ad10 of=/dev/null count=1
To disable spindown, set timeout to zero:
atacontrol spindown ad10 0
In order to debug any trouble caused, this code is somewhat noisy on the
console.
Enabling spindown on a disk containing / or /var/log/messages is not
going to do anything sensible.
Spinning a disk up and down all the time will wear it out, use sensibly.

this means that it no longer grabs the lagg rwlock. Use two port table arrays
which list the active ports for Tx and switch between them with an atomic op.
Now the lagg rwlock is only exclusively locked for management (ioctls) and

of the array length needed to store all the directory entries.
Although BSD has historically guaranteed that st_size is the size
of the directory file, POSIX does not, and more to the point, some
recent filesystems such as ZFS use st_size to mean something else.
The fix is to not stat the directory at all, set the initial
array size to 32 entries, and realloc it in powers of 2 if that
proves insufficient.
