race in between sleepq_add() and sleepq_catch_signals() in that setting
td_wchan and TDF_SINTR is not atomic to sched_lock but only to the sleepq
lock. This band-aid will stop assertion failures, but there is perhaps a
larger problem with the sleepq_add/sleepq_catch_signals race that I am not
sure how to solve. For the signals case the race is harmless because we
always call cursig() after setting TDF_SINTR. However, KSE doesn't do
anything in sleepq_catch_signals() to check that this race was lost, so I
am unsure if this race is harmful for this specific abort.
to NET_UNLOCK_GIANT(). While they are used in similar ways, the
semantics are quite different -- NET_LOCK_GIANT() and NET_UNLOCK_GIANT()
directly wrap mutex lock and unlock operations, whereas drop/pickup
special case the handling of Giant recursion. Add a comment saying
as much.
Add NET_ASSERT_GIANT(), which conditionally asserts Giant based
on the value of debug_mpsafenet.

serial console connections but not graphical consoles. This fixes the
graphical console machines. It leaves the initial promcons console
driver in place until a bit later in the boot sequence, delaying the
switch to the device drivers more appropriate for the machine's real
console setup. Note we still need the delayed make_dev() for promcons,
it does not have a proper bus interface so unlike other console drivers
it will not be found later during normal device discovery.

swap-backed memory disks. This reduces filesystem allocation overhead
and makes swap-backed memory disks compatible with broken code (dd,
for example) which expects to see 512 byte sectors. The size of a
swap-backed memory disk must still be a multiple of the page size.
When performing page-aligned operations, this change has zero
performance impact.

This wasn't needed and probably never would have worked as intended. Now
that cv_waitq_empty() and friends are gone, the code in these drivers that
spins on it can go away too. This should unbreak LINT.
