LOCKPARENT semantics with child and perent vnodes coming from different FSes
does not really have any meaningful use. On the other hard, this prevents
easily triggered deadlock on systems using automounter daemon.
vm_pager_init() is run before required nswbuf variable has been set

Implementors of the event can ignore it if they're not interested,
and most do. This avoids having multiple event handler types and
fall-back/precedence logic in devfs.
This changes the kernel API for /dev cloning, and may affect third
party packages containg cloning kernel modules.

It should be noted that this changes breaks ABI on 64 bit architectures

checking if the mount wants knotes to be activated in the VOP hooks.
So, we add a new vnode flag VV_NOKNOTE that is only set in getnewvnode(),
if necessary, and check it when activating knotes.
Since the flags are not erased when a vnode is being held, we can safely
read them.

kenv environment in kern_environment.c switches to dynamic kenv. The prior
call sets the static variable hintp to the static hints in subr_hints.c
(hintmode==0).
However, changes to the environment are not detected by the resource_xxx
lookups after the change to dynamic kernel environment, so the lookup
routines only report the old stuff of hintmode==0, even after the change to
the dynamic kenv. This causes kenv users to see a different environment than
the kernel routines.
This is a problem in the mixer.c code that looks up initial mixer volume
settings from the hints: If the hints are dynamic and not from the
device.hints file, mixer.c doesn't see them, but kenv does.
The patch from the PR (modified to comply to the style of the function)
solves this.

This has no security implications since only root is allowed to use
kenv(1) (and corrupt the kernel memory after adding too much variables
previous to this commit).
This is based upon the PR [1] mentioned below, but extended to check both
bounds (in case of an overflow of the counting variable) and to comply
to the style of the function. An overflow of the counting variable
shouldn't happen after adding the check for the upper bound, but better
safe than sorry (in case some other function in the kernel overwrites
random memory).
An interested soul may want to add a printf to notify root in case the
bounds are hit.
Also allocate KENV_SIZE+1 entries (the array is NULL-terminated), since
the comment for KENV_SIZE says it's the maximum number of environment
strings. [2]

make the b_iodone callback responsible for setting it if it is needed.
Previously, it was set unconditionally by bufdone() without holding
whichever lock is shared by the b_iodone callback and the corresponding
top-half function. Consequently, in a race, the top-half function could
conclude that operation was done before the b_iodone callback finished.
See, for example, aio_physwakeup() and aio_fphysio().
Note: I don't believe that the other, more widely-used b_iodone callbacks
are affected.

to preempt us although we should revisit the algorithm to fix the runtime
problems especially since this may hold up all vnode allocations.
- Remove the LK_NOWAIT from the VOP_LOCK in vlrureclaim. This provides
a natural blocking point to help alleviate the situation described above
although it may not technically be desirable.
