After disscussing things I have decided to take the easy and
consistent 90% solution instead of aiming for the very involved 99%
solution.
If we allow forceful unmounts of DEVFS we need to decide how to handle
the devices which are in use through this filesystem at the time.
We cannot just readopt the open devices in the main /dev instance since
that would open us to security issues.
For the majority of the devices, this is relatively straightforward
as we can just pretend they got revoke(2)'ed.
Some devices get tricky: /dev/console and /dev/tty for instance
does a sort of recursive open of the real console device. Other devices
may be mmap'ed (kill the processes ?).
And then there are disk devices which are mounted.
The correct thing here would be to recursively unmount the filesystems
mounte from devices from our DEVFS instance (forcefully) and if
this succeeds, complete the forcefully unmount of DEVFS. But if
one of the forceful unmounts fail we cannot complete the forceful
unmount of DEVFS, but we are likely to already have severed a lot
of stuff in the process of trying.
Event attempting this would be a lot of code for a very far out
corner-case which most people would never see or get in touch with.
It's just not worth it.

o Move the sysctls under debug.psm.* and hw.psm.* making them a bit
clearer and more consistent with other drivers.
o Remove the debug.psm_soft_timeout sysctl. It was introduced many
moons ago in r1.64 but never referenced anywhere.
o Introduce hw.psm.tap_threshold and hw.psm.tap_timeout to control
the behaviour of taps on touchpads. People might like to fiddle
with these if tapping seems to slow or too fast for them.
o Add debug.psm.loglevel as a tunable so that verbosity can be set
easily at boot-time (to watch probes and such) without having to
compile a kernel with options PSM_DEBUG=N.

To retain the security advantage of random ports and ensure
correct operation for high connection rate users, disable
port randomization during periods of high connection rates.
Whenever the connection rate exceeds randomcps (10 by default),
randomization will be disabled for randomtime (45 by default)
seconds. These thresholds may be tuned via sysctl.

change and tested many preliminary versions of the patch.

The debug.unaligned_test sysctl is used to test the emulation of
misaligned loads and stores. When PSR.ac is 0, the CPU will handle
misaligned memory accesses itselfi and we don't get an exception
for it. When PSR.ac is 1, the process needs to be signalled and we
should not emulate. The sysctl takes effect when PSR.ac is 1 and
tells us that we should emulate and not send a signal.

function provided by the driver limits allocations to the page size,
i.e. 4KB on i385 and 8KB on typical 64 bit processors. Since amd64
has 64 bit pointers, but only 4KB pages, an array of pointers that
just fits into one page on all the other processors, does require
2 pages on amd64.
In order to make this driver useful on amd64, the allocation unit
has been increased to 2 pages on amd64 and contigmalloc() is used
instead of malloc(). All other processor types are unaffected by
this change. This modification has only been compile-tested on
amd64, yet, but should just work (FLW).
