o Add comments in some places to clarify some points.
o Don't typedef sc_p. This isn't usually done in the drivers and may
cause problems in teh future if C goes the C++ route of requiring
one and only one definition for each and every type. Instead use
the current convetion of expanding struct ${1}_softc * inline needed.
o change some comments to be more style(9)-like.
o Define and use DEV2SOFTC to encapsulate storing/getting softc from a
dev_t. This also takes care of the missing cast from the examples.
o Define and use DEVICE2SOFTC, similar to DEV2SOFTC for getting the
softc from a device_t.

We still should have this generate foo_{isa,pci,pccard,cardbus,eisa}.c
and foovar.h from templates of some sort, but I was too lazy to do
that in this commit. I did document it in the comments, however.

format version number. (userland programs should not need to be
recompiled when the netgraph kernel internal ABI is changed.
Also fix modules that don;t handle the fact that a caller may not supply
a return message pointer. (benign at the moment because the calling code
checks, but that will change)
This clears out my outstanding netgraph changes.
There is a netgraph change of design in the offing and this is to some
extent a superset of soem of the new functionality and some of the old
functionality that may be removed.
This code works as before, but allows some new features that I want to
work with and evaluate. It is the basis for a version of netgraph
with integral locking for SMP use.
This is running on my test machine with no new problems :-)
.PATH to ${.CURDIR}/[...]/kern , the "exists" expression will fail for the
form exists(${.CURDIR}/[...]/kern/). This appears to be happening because
make is searching for the argument to "exists" by using .PATH rather than a
relative search, because .PATH and the argument match at the beginning.
Additionally, make appears to consider a path that starts with ${.CURDIR}
as relative, even though it expands to an absolute path.
The reason that most people aren't seeing this problem is that the absolute
paths of /usr/src/sys and /sys are also searched, so as long as the kernel
source can be found in at least one of those places, no problems surface.
This problem was inadvertently introduced on 1 December 2000, with the
addition of the sysvipc modules.
