kern_nanosleep() is now converted to use tsleep_sbt(). With this change
nanosleep() and usleep() can handle sub-tick precision for timeouts.
Also, try to help coalesce of events passing as argument to tsleep_bt()
a precision value calculated as a percentage of the sleep time.
This percentage is default 5%, but it can tuned according to users
need via the sysctl interface.

Make loadavg calculation callout direct. There are several reasons for it:
- it is very simple and doesn't worth context switch to SWI;
- since SWI is no longer used here, we can remove twelve years old hack,
excluding this SWI from from the loadavg statistics;
- it fixes problem when eventtimer (HPET) shares interrupt with some other
device, and that interrupt thread counted as permanent loadavg of 1; now
loadavg accounted before that interrupt thread is scheduled.

precise time event generation. This greatly improves granularity of
callouts which are not anymore constrained to wait next tick to be
scheduled.
- Extend the callout KPI introducing a set of callout_reset_sbt* functions,
which take a sbintime_t as timeout argument. The new KPI also offers a
way for consumers to specify precision tolerance they allow, so that
callout can coalesce events and reduce number of interrupts as well as
potentially avoid scheduling a SWI thread.
- Introduce support for dispatching callouts directly from hardware
interrupt context, specifying an additional flag. This feature should be
used carefully, as long as interrupt context has some limitations
(e.g. no sleeping locks can be held).
- Enhance mechanisms to gather informations about callwheel, introducing
a new sysctl to obtain stats.
This change breaks the KBI. struct callout fields has been changed, in
particular 'int ticks' (4 bytes) has been replaced with 'sbintime_t'
(8 bytes) and another 'sbintime_t' field was added for precision.

pointers to the file structure receiving descriptors stopped to work when also
at least few kilobytes of data is being send. In the kernel the
soreceive_generic() function doesn't see control mbuf as the first mbuf and
unp_externalize() is never called, first 6(?) kilobytes of data is missing as
well on receiving end.
This breaks for example tmux.
I don't know yet why going from 8 bytes to sizeof(struct filedescent) per
descriptor (or even to 16 bytes per descriptor) breaks things, but to
work-around it for now use 8 bytes per file descriptor at the cost of memory
allocation.

- Capability is no longer separate descriptor type. Now every descriptor
has set of its own capability rights.
- The cap_new(2) system call is left, but it is no longer documented and
should not be used in new code.
- The new syscall cap_rights_limit(2) should be used instead of
cap_new(2), which limits capability rights of the given descriptor
without creating a new one.
- The cap_getrights(2) syscall is renamed to cap_rights_get(2).
- If CAP_IOCTL capability right is present we can further reduce allowed
ioctls list with the new cap_ioctls_limit(2) syscall. List of allowed
ioctls can be retrived with cap_ioctls_get(2) syscall.
- If CAP_FCNTL capability right is present we can further reduce fcntls
that can be used with the new cap_fcntls_limit(2) syscall and retrive
them with cap_fcntls_get(2).
- To support ioctl and fcntl white-listing the filedesc structure was
heavly modified.
- The audit subsystem, kdump and procstat tools were updated to
recognize new syscalls.

Many aspects discussed with: rwatson, benl, jonathan

directory entry, matched by the inode number, is ".".
NFSv4 client might instantiate the distinct vnodes which have the same
inode number, since single v4 export can be combined from several
filesystems on the server. For instance, a case when the nested
server mount point is exactly one directory below the top of the
export, causes directory and its parent to have the same inode number
2. The vop_stdvptocnp() algorithm then returns "." as the name of the
lower directory.
Filtering out the "." entry with ENOENT works around this behaviour,
the error forces getcwd(3) to fall back to usermode implementation,
which compares both st_dev and st_ino.

Switch eventtimers(9) from using struct bintime to sbintime_t.
Even before this not a single driver really supported full dynamic range of
struct bintime even in theory, not speaking about practical inexpediency.
This change legitimates the status quo and cleans up the code.
When CPU becomes idle, cpu_idleclock() calculates time to the next timer
event in order to reprogram hw timer. Return that time in sbintime_t to
the caller and pass it to acpi_cpu_idle(), where it can be used as one
more factor (quite precise) to extimate furter sleep time and choose
optimal sleep state. This is a preparatory change for further callout
improvements will be committed in the next days.
The commmit is not targeted for MFC.

changes in r246417 were incomplete as they did not add explicit calls to
sigdeferstop() around all the places that previously passed SBDRY to
_sleep(). In addition, nfs_getcacheblk() could trigger a write RPC from
getblk() resulting in sigdeferstop() recursing. Rather than manually
deferring stop signals in specific places, change the VFS_*() and VOP_*()
methods to defer stop signals for filesystems which request this behavior
via a new VFCF_SBDRY flag. Note that this has to be a VFC flag rather than
a MNTK flag so that it works properly with VFS_MOUNT() when the mount is
not yet fully constructed. For now, only the NFS clients are set this new
flag in VFS_SET().
A few other related changes:
- Add an assertion to ensure that TDF_SBDRY doesn't leak to userland.
- When a lookup request uses VOP_READLINK() to follow a symlink, mark
the request as being on behalf of the thread performing the lookup
(cnp_thread) rather than using a NULL thread pointer. This causes
NFS to properly handle signals during this VOP on an interruptible
mount.

write is a disk write request that tells the disk that the buffer
being written must be committed to the media along with any writes
that preceeded it before any future blocks may be written to the drive.
Barrier writes are provided by adding the functions bbarrierwrite
(bwrite with barrier) and babarrierwrite (bawrite with barrier).
Following a bbarrierwrite the client knows that the requested buffer
is on the media. It does not ensure that buffers written before that
buffer are on the media. It only ensure that buffers written before
that buffer will get to the media before any buffers written after
that buffer. A flush command must be sent to the disk to ensure that
all earlier written buffers are on the media.
