If a selinfo object is recorded (via selrecord()) and then it is
quickly destroyed, with the waiters missing the opportunity to awake,
at the next iteration they will find the selinfo object destroyed,
causing a PF#.
That happens because the selinfo interface has no way to drain the
waiters before to destroy the registered selinfo object. Also this
race is quite rare to get in practice, because it would require a
selrecord(), a poll request by another thread and a quick destruction
of the selrecord()'ed selinfo object.
Fix this by adding the seldrain() routine which should be called
before to destroy the selinfo objects (in order to avoid such case),
and fix the present cases where it might have already been called.
Sometimes, the context is safe enough to prevent this type of race,
like it happens in device drivers which installs selinfo objects on
poll callbacks. There, the destruction of the selinfo object happens
at driver detach time, when all the filedescriptors should be already
closed, thus there cannot be a race.
For this case, mfi(4) device driver can be set as an example, as it
implements a full correct logic for preventing this from happening.

wrapper around rman_adjust_resource(). Include a generic implementation,
bus_generic_adjust_resource() which passes the request up to the parent
bus. There is currently no default implementation. A
bus_adjust_resource() wrapper is provided for use in drivers.
Specifically, these changes allow a resource to back a relocatable and
resizable resource such as the I/O window decoders in PCI-PCI bridges.
- rman_adjust_resource() can adjust the start and end address of an
existing resource. It only succeeds if the newly requested address
space is already free. It also supports shrinking a resource in
which case the freed space will be marked unallocated in the rman.
- rman_first_free_region() and rman_last_free_region() return the
start and end addresses for the first or last unallocated region in
an rman, respectively. This can be used to determine by how much
the resource backing an rman must be adjusted to accomodate an
allocation request that does not fit into the existing rman.
While here, document the rm_start and rm_end fields in struct rman,
rman_is_region_manager(), the bound argument to
rman_reserve_resource_bound(), and rman_init_from_resource().

media option generally should be used instead. Actually I think the lists
of media types should be removed from the manual pages of MAC drivers
altogether and users just pointed to the output of `ifconfig -m` instead;
even before r215297 there were several outdated descriptions, technically
it's wrong most of the time as not the MAC drivers support these media
types but actually the PHY drivers do and it generally doesn't make sense
to maintain these lists in every manual page of a driver as the media is
auto-detected.
This was removed in 2001 but I think it is appropriate to add it back:
* I do not want to encourage people to write fragile and non-portable echo
commands by making printf much slower than echo.
* Recent versions of Autoconf use it a lot.
* Almost no software still wants to support systems that do not have
printf(1) at all.
* In many other shells printf is already a builtin.
Side effect: printf is now always the builtin version (which behaves
identically to /usr/bin/printf) and cannot be overridden via PATH (except
via the undocumented %builtin mechanism).
Code size increases about 5K on i386. Embedded folks might want to replace
/usr/bin/printf with a hard link to /usr/bin/alias.
