Mainly focus on files that use BSD 3-Clause license.
The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.
Special thanks to Wind River for providing access to "The Duke of
Highlander" tool: an older (2014) run over FreeBSD tree was useful as a
starting point.
Renumber cluase 4 to 3, per what everybody else did when BSD granted
them permission to remove clause 3. My insistance on keeping the same
numbering for legal reasons is too pedantic, so give up on that point.

These tools declare global variables without using the static keyword,
even though their use is limited to a single C-file, or without placing
an extern declaration of them in the proper header file.
For filesystems which use vfs_mount_error() to log an error, this
char buffer will be populated with a string error message.
If nmount() fails, in addition to printing out strerror(errno),
print out the "errmsg" populated by vfs_mount_error().
- Add build_iovec_argf() helper function, for help converting old
mount options which used the mount_argf() function for the mount() syscall.
Discussed with: phk
- Teach the mount program to call the nmount() syscall directly
- Preserve existing method of calling mount() for UFS, until we clean things
up.
- Preserve existing method of forking and calling external mount programs for
mfs, msdosfs, nfs, nfs4, ntfs, nwfs, nullfs, portalfs, reiserfs, smbfs,
udf, umapfs, unionfs
- devfs, linprocfs, procfs, ext2fs call nmount() syscall directly, since
that is all those external mount programs were doing
