5855006767 Add a consistent API to a feature that most modern CPUs have; a fast
counter register in-CPU.

This is to be used as a fast "timer", where linearity is more important
than time, and multiple lines in the linearity caused by multiple CPUs
in an SMP machine is not a problem.

This adds no code whatsoever to the FreeBSD kernel until it is actually
used, and then as a single-instruction inline routine (except for the
80386 and 80486 where it is some more inline code around nanotime(9).

bfd597212a Fixup some wrong statements in the new mbuf(9) man page.
Also introduce a bunch of (missed?) macros and functions.
This man page still needs a lot of work, most likely a re-ordering
of the macros/functions, and a more complete, more accurate, listing of
available routines.
A good and worthy start nonetheless.

cf9fa8e725 Move suser() and suser_xxx() prototypes and a related #define from
<sys/proc.h> to <sys/systm.h>.

Correctly document the #includes needed in the manpage.

Add one now needed #include of <sys/systm.h>.
Remove the consequent 48 unused #includes of <sys/proc.h>.

1921a06d6a Introduce the M_ZERO flag to malloc(9)
Instead of:

        foo = malloc(sizeof(foo), M_WAIT);
        bzero(foo, sizeof(foo));

You can now (and please do) use:

        foo = malloc(sizeof(foo), M_WAIT | M_ZERO);

In the future this will enable us to do idle-time pre-zeroing of
malloc-space.
