threshold. Inflight doesn't make sense on a LAN as it has
trouble figuring out the maximal bandwidth because of the coarse
tick granularity.
The sysctl net.inet.tcp.inflight.rttthresh specifies the threshold
in milliseconds below which inflight will disengage. It defaults
to 10ms.

suspension code. When a thread A is going to sleep, it calls
sleepq_catch_signals() to detect any pending signals or thread
suspension request, if nothing happens, it returns without
holding process lock or scheduler lock, this opens a race
window which allows thread B to come in and do process
suspension work, however since A is still at running state,
thread B can do nothing to A, thread A continues, and puts
itself into actually sleeping state, but B has never seen it,
and it sits there forever until B is woken up by other threads
sometimes later(this can be very long delay or never
happen). Fix this bug by forcing sleepq_catch_signals to
return with scheduler lock held.
Fix sleepq_abort() by passing it an interrupted code, previously,
it worked as wakeup_one(), and the interruption can not be
identified correctly by sleep queue code when the sleeping
thread is resumed.
Let thread_suspend_check() returns EINTR or ERESTART, so sleep
queue no longer has to use SIGSTOP as a hack to build a return
value.

and it has not plenty of free pages it tries to free pages in the cache queue.
Unfortunately freeing a cached page requires the locking of the object that
owns the page. However in the context of allocating pages we may not be able
to lock the object and thus can only TRY to lock the object. If the locking try
fails the cache page can not be freed and is activated to move it out of the way
so that we may try to free other cache pages.
If all pages in the cache belong to objects that are currently locked the
cache queue can be emptied without freeing a single page. This scenario caused
two problems:
1) vm_page_alloc always failed allocation when it tried freeing pages from
the cache queue and failed to do so. However if there are more than
cnt.v_interrupt_free_min pages on the free list it should return pages
when requested with priority VM_ALLOC_SYSTEM. Failure to do so can cause
resource exhaustion deadlocks.
2) Threads than need to allocate pages spend a lot of time cleaning up the
page queue without really getting anything done while the pagedaemon
needs to work overtime to refill the cache.
This change fixes the first problem. (1)

DMA callback functions- one when we have bus_addr_t > 4 bits in width and
the other which should be normal. Even Cheezier in that we turn off setting
up DMA maps to be BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR if we're in ISP_TARGET_MODE. More work
on this in a week or so.

uses ctob() to convert realmem from pages to bytes. Thus, on archs that
were storing a byte count in the realmem variable, hw.realmem was inflated.
