List of functional changes:
- Make a single device per single node with a single hook.
This gives us parrallelizm, which can't be achieved on a single
node with many devices/hooks. This also gives us flexibility - we
can play with a particular device node, not affecting others.
- Remove read queue as it is. Use struct ifqueue instead. This change
removes a lot of extra memcpy()ing, m_devget()ting and m_copymem()ming.
In ng_device_receivedata() we enqueue an mbuf and wake readers.
In ngdread() we take one mbuf from qeueue and uiomove() it to
userspace. If no mbuf is present we optionally block. [1]
- In ngdwrite() we create an mbuf from uio using m_uiotombuf().
This is faster then uiomove() into buffer, and then m_copydata(),
and this is much better than huge m_pullup().
- Perform locking of device
- Perform locking of connection list.
- Clear out _rcvmsg method, since it does nothing good yet.
- Implement NGM_DEVICE_GET_DEVNAME message.
- #if 0 ioctl method, while nothing is done here yet.
- Return immediately from ngdwrite() if uio_resid == 0.
List of tidyness changes:
- Introduce device2priv(), to remove cut'n'paste.
- Use MALLOC/FREE, instead of malloc/free.
- Use unit2minor().
- Use UID_ROOT/GID_WHEEL instead of 0/0.
- Define NGD_DEVICE_DEVNAME, use it.
- Use more nice macros for debugging. [2]
- Return Exxx, not -1.
style(9) changes:
- No "#endif" after short block.
- Break long lines.
- Remove extra spaces, add needed spaces.

1. Conform to IEEE Std 1003.1-2004, which state that "Constructed
arguments cannot grow larger than 255 bytes", and
2. Avoid a buffer overflow.
Unfortunately the standard doesn't indicate how xargs is supposed to
handle arguments which (with the appropriate substitutions) would grow
larger than 255 bytes; this solution handles those by making as many
substitutions as possible without overflowing the buffer.
OpenBSD's xargs resolves this in a different direction, by making
all the substitutions and then silently truncating the resulting string.
Since this change may break existing scripts which rely upon the buffer
overflow (255 bytes isn't really all that long...) it will not be MFCed.
failure in the NFS server would result in a leaked instance of the NFS
server subsystem lock. Liberally sprinkle assertions in all target
labels for error unwinding to assert the desired locking state.

errors are in rarely executed paths.
1. Each time the retry_alloc path is taken, the PG_BUSY must be set again.
Otherwise vm_page_remove() panics.
2. There is no need to set PG_BUSY on the newly allocated page before
freeing it. The page already has PG_BUSY set by vm_page_alloc().
Setting it again could cause an assertion failure.

probably means it also requires a .so version
bump. Defer it until I finish some related
work on cleaning up error returns throughout
the library.

Changes in Argentina and Brazil have created several new time zone regions.

vm_page_io_finish(). The motivation being to transition synchronization of
the vm_page's busy field from the global page queues lock to the per-object
lock.

incomprehensible prefixes on average. During all of October, this is
