Improved logging added in r323879 exposed an error during
attach. We need the irq, not the rid to work correctly. em uses
shared irqs, so it will use the same irq for TX as RX. bnxt does
not use shared irqs, or TX irqs at all, so there's no need to set
the TX irq affinity.

use LDT segments immediately.
If the i386_set_ldt() call created a first LDT descriptor (and
consequently created the LDT) for our address space, LDTR is currently
loaded only on the CPU executing the syscall. Other CPUs executing
threads sharing the address space, would only load LDTR after context
switch.
Uncomment set_user_ldt_rv() and call it on all CPUs. Remove critical
section inside set_user_ldt(), it is not needed in the context of call
from smp_rendezvous().
Set md_ldt after md_ldt_sd is initialized using the same code sequence
as in user_ldt_free(). Do the whole initialization in a critical
section, to not race with the context switching while we set LDT.

cpu_switch.S uses curproc->p_md.md_ldt value as the flag indicating
presence of the process LDT. The flag is checked and then ldt segment
descriptor is copied into the CPU' GDT slot.
Disallow context switches around clearing of the curproc LDT state by
performing the cleanup in critical section. Ensure that the md_ldt
flag is cleared before md_ldt_sd descriptor content is destroyed by
inserting fence between the operations.
We depend on the x86 memory model strong ordering guarantees, in
particular, that cpu_switch.S observes the writes to md_ldt and
md_ldt_sd in the expected order.

In general, the "kern" facility is reserved for the kernel use only.
If a program specifies that facility, then it is silently converted
to "user" facility.
So, using logger -p kern.xxx was both misleading and non-specific.
Thus, change the facility to local7, so that users can create
more adequate syslogd configurations.
While local0..local7 are documented as being for local use we already
have several examples in the tree where they are used because none of
the named facilities really fits.

A sysctl can have a custom handler that may access data that is initialized
via SYSINIT(9) or via a module event handler (also invoked via SYSINIT).
Thus, it is not safe to allow access to the module's sysctl-s until
the initialization is performed. Likewise, we should not allow access
to teh sysctl-s after the module is uninitialized.
The latter is easy to achieve by properly ordering linker_file_unregister_sysctls
and linker_file_sysuninit.
The former is not as easy for two reasons:
- the initialization may depend on tunables which get set when sysctl-s are
registered, so we need to set the tunables before running sysinit-s
- the initialization may try to dynamically add more sysctl-s under statically
defined sysctl nodes
So, this change splits the sysctl setup into two phases. In the first phase
the sysctl-s are registered as before but they are disabled and hidden from
consumers. In the second phase, done after sysinit-s, normal access to the
sysctl-s is enabled.
The change should affect only dynamic module loading and unloading after
the system boot-up. Nothing changes for sysctl-s compiled into the kernel
and sysctl-s in preloaded modules.

Provide consistent snapshot of the requested descriptors by preventing
other threads from modifying LDT while we fetch the data, lock dt_lock
around the read. Copy the data into intermediate buffer, which is
copied out after the lock is dropped.
Use guaranteed atomic (aligned volatile) reads of the descriptors to
use same-size atomic as CPU update to set A bit in the descriptor type
field.
Improve overflow checking for the descriptors range calculations and
remove unneeded casts.

Zero, <TYPE>_MIN and <TYPE>_MAX values can result from valid conversions.
They don't necessarily imply any error.
Since we do not have any reliable error signaling from libkern's strto*(),
it's better to always assume success rather than to report an error when
there is none.

Compilers are allowed to combine plain reads into group operations,
e.g. 64bit element copies of one array into another can be
legitimately optimized back to a memcpy() call, which r323772 tried to
prevent.
Qualify accesses to LDT descriptors with volatile dereference to
ensure that each write indeed occurs. After that, our usual claim of
native-size aligned writes being atomic applies.
This is equivalent to atomic_store(memory_order_relaxed) C11 accesses,
but our machine/atomic.h does not provide corresponding primitive.
