setting the B_REMFREE flag in the buf. This is done to prevent lock order
reversals with code that must call bremfree() with a local lock held.
This also reduces overhead by removing two lock operations per buf for
fsync() and similar.
- Check for the B_REMFREE flag in brelse() and bqrelse() after the bqlock
has been acquired so that we may remove ourself from the free-list.
- Provide a bremfreef() function to immediately remove a buf from a
free-list for use only by NFS. This is done because the nfsclient code
overloads the b_freelist queue for its own async. io queue.
- Simplify the numfreebuffers accounting by removing a switch statement
that executed the same code in every possible case.
- getnewbuf() can encounter locked bufs on free-lists once Giant is removed.
Remove a panic associated with this condition and delay asserts that
inspect the buf until after it is locked.

a storm is detected, enter "storming" mode which throttles the interrupt
source such that the handlers are run once every clock tick. Previously
we allowed a full set of storm_threshold interations through the handler
before going back to sleep. Also, this currently will intentionally exit
storming mode once a second to see if the storm has passed.

instead of a vnode for it.
The vnode_pager does not and should not have any interest in what
the filesystem uses for backend.
(vfs_cluster doesn't use the backing store argument.)
Use this in all the places where sleeping with the lock held is not
an issue.
The distinction will become significant once we finalize the exact
lock-type to use for this kind of case.
return EINVAL rather than setting error, and don't free sops
unconditionally. The first change was merged accidentally as part of
the larger set of changes to introduce MAC labels and access control,
and potentially lead to continued processing of a request even after
it was determined to be invalid. The second change was due to changes
in the semaphore code since the original work was performed.

to be modified and extended without breaking the user space ABI:
Use _kernel variants on _ds structures for System V sempahores, message
queues, and shared memory. When interfacing with userspace, export
only the _ds subsets of the _kernel data structures. A lot of search
and replace.
Define the message structure in the _KERNEL portion of msg.h so that it
can be used by other kernel consumers, but not exposed to user space.
