nothing, which is safe as it is only waiting on the parent buffer to
be written, so it can be removed.

mnt_noasync counter to temporary remove MNTK_ASYNC mount option, which
is needed to guarantee a synchronous completion of the initiated i/o
before syscall or VOP return. Global removal of MNTK_ASYNC option is
harmful because not only i/o started from corresponding thread becomes
synchronous, but all i/o is synchronous on the filesystem which is
initiated during sync(2) or syncer activity.
Instead of removing MNTK_ASYNC from mnt_kern_flag, provide a local
thread flag to disable async i/o for current thread only. Use the
opportunity to move DOINGASYNC() macro into sys/vnode.h and
consistently use it through places which tested for MNTK_ASYNC.
Some testing demonstrated 60-70% improvements in run time for the
metadata-intensive operations on async-mounted UFS volumes, but still
with great deviation due to other reasons.

The cs driver requires a table with firmware values. An
alternative firmware is available in a similar Open Sound
System driver. This is actually a partial revert of
Revision 77504.
Special thanks to joel@ for patiently testing several
replacement attempts.
The csa driver and the complete sound system are now free
of the GPL.

disconnected swap device.
This is quick and imperfect solution, as swap device will still be opened
and GEOM will not be able to destroy it. Proper solution would be to
automatically turn off and close disconnected swap device, but with existing
code it will cause panic if there is at least one page on device, even if
it is unimportant page of the user-level process. It needs some work.

- current code treats bits 4:7 in 'SATAHC interrupt mask' and 'SATAHC
interrupt cause' as flags for SATA channels 2 and 3
- for embedded SATA controllers (SoC) these bits have been marked as reserved
in datasheets so far, but for some new and upcoming chips they are used for
purposes other than SATA
