in vn_rdwr_inchunks(), allowing other processes to gain an exclusive
lock on the vnode. Specifically: directory scanning, to avoid a race to the
root directory, and multiple child processes coring simultaniously so they
can figure out that some other core'ing child has an exclusive adv lock and
just exit instead.
This completely fixes performance problems when large programs core. You
can have hundreds of copies (forked children) of the same binary core all
at once and not notice.

We still have to account for a copyin. Make sure the copyin will
succeed by passing the FreeBSD syscall a pointer to userspace,
albeit one that's automagically mapped into kernel space.

PCI_ALLOW_UNSUPPORTED_IO_RANGE causes the sanity checks to pass even

for securelevel_ge() and securelevel_gt(), I was a little surprised,
but fixed it. Turns out that it was the code that was inverted, during
a whitespace cleanup in my commit tree. This commit inverts the
checks, and restores the comment.
This fixed the problem on the 3 platforms I've been able to test on.
I'm still of the oppinion that the BIOS should take care of this,
however some board makers only apply this when they spot a
SBLive! soundcard, but the problem exists even without a SBLive!.
This fix should probably go somewhere else, but for now I'll
keep it here since we havn't got a central place to put
such things.

This should fix the problem that the PS/2 mouse is detected
twice if the acpi module is not loaded on some systems.

to better indicate the scope of actions permittable when any system
flags are already set (limited).

sizeof(struct inode) into a new malloc bucket on the i386. This
didn't happen in -current due to the removal of i_lock, but it does
no harm to apply the workaround to -current first.
Reduce the size of the i_spare[] array in struct inode from 4 to
3 entries, and change ext2fs to use i_din.di_spare[1] so that it
does not need i_spare[3].
