cache after a data access error we must discard all cache lines. When
disabled existing cache lines are not invalidated by stores to memory, so
we risk reading stale data that was cached before the data access error if
we don't flush them. This is especially fatal when the memory involved
is the active part of the kernel or user stack. For good measure we also
flush the instruction cache.
This fixes random crashes when the X server probes the PCI bus through
/dev/pci.

be the ess driver and it only call it a creation time, I

either this or do what emu10k1 does which is have no locks

of my test cases.

consistency initialized. Consequently, a number of conditionals that
checked the validity of b_object before passing it to VM_OBJECT_LOCK()
and VM_OBJECT_UNLOCK() are no longer needed.
The reason this was done was to avoid a race to the root when an
NFS server went down. However a semi-recent change to the way that
the kernel's lookup() routine traverses mount points prevents this.
Rev 1.39 of vfs_lookup.c changed the ordering of locks such that we
aquire a shared lock on the mount point being accessed and then drop
the directory vnode lock before requesting the target lock.
With that in place we no longer need shared locks for NFS to prevent
race to the root lockups.

triggered when dhclient(8) tried to send a packet after an interface

because RFNOWAIT was being passed to kproc_create.
The result was that shutdown took quite a bit longer because this
errant "child" would not respond to termination signals from init
at system shutdown.
RFNOWAIT dissassociates itself from the caller by attaching to init
as a parent proc. We could have had the taskqueue proc listen for
SIGKILL, but being able to SIGKILL a potentially critical system
process doesn't seem like a good idea.

Pre-cursor review: joe@
comment about this flag in rev.1.61. It is not historical like the
comment said; it is the flag that says that most of what is laboriously
put in the bootinfo struct is actually there. Newer kernels were
bootable by even the broken boot2 without losing anything except the
symbol table, but older kernels need at least the memory sizes.
Restoring the "|" with RB_BOOTINFO that was lost in rev.1.43 costs 5
bytes. The fix can be done in only 4 bytes by fixing some code that
was removed in rev.1.61 (put RB_BOOTINFO back in in the initial value
of "opts" and fix RBX_MASK to not clobber it.)
crashes that had sn0 as the irq that's being serviced, when there was
no sn0 in the system. This seems to prevent them. Also, we want to
wait until after we've registered with the network layer before we
turn on the interrupt spigot to avoid races.
