4k to 8k. This has a significant effect on the pipe performance. In
the future it might be good to increase this to 16k. PIPSIZ is now
tunable for experimentation.
external linkage.
Remove useless comments saying that SYSINIT() does system initialization.
shm.c:
Remove nearly useless comment that gave wrong pseudo-prototypes.
bp->b_flags has been broken for many years:
a) they didn't set B_BUSY for doing i/o. This has been fatal since
1995/07/25 when biodone() started checking that B_BUSY is set.
b) they didn't set B_INVAL for releasing the buffer. This at best
just put a useless buffer in the LRU queue for a little while.
Fix a couple of spelling errors and complete a couple of function
pointer declarations.

This is a composite of 3 patch sets submitted by terry.
they are:
New low-level init code that supports loadbal modules better
some cleanups in the namei code to help terry in 16-bit character support
some changes to the mount-root code to make it a little more
modular..
NOTE: mounting root off cdrom or NFS MIGHT be broken as I haven't been able
to test those cases..
certainly mounting root of disk still works just fine..
mfs should work but is untested. (tomorrows task)
The low level init stuff includes a total rewrite of init_main.c
to make it possible for new modules to have an init phase by simply
adding an entry to a TEXT_SET (or is it DATA_SET) list. thus a new module can
be added to the kernel without editing any other files other than the
'files' file.
calls with a byte size of 1. This special case was not
correctly emulated. Now programs such as a simple 'ls' to a commercial
Macintosh emulator called 'executor' will work correctly.
instead of with none. The first (struct proc *) arg is used if lkmnosys()
if is actually called.
Implement lkmnosys() with the correct number and type of args so that
the first of them can be used and the others won't need to be fixed
lated.
nfsm_rpchead() has been called with the wrong number of args and misplaced
args since someone added new args in the middle for nfsv3.
Here's another one that would be important on 64-bit systems. VOP_READDIR
takes a `u_int **cookies' arg.
