Note ALL MODULES MUST BE RECOMPILED
make the kernel aware that there are smaller units of scheduling than the
process. (but only allow one thread per process at this time).
This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except
that there is a thread associated with each process.
Sorry john! (your next MFC will be a doosie!)

FreeBSD/alpha. The most significant item is to change the command
argument to ioctl functions from int to u_long. This change brings us
inline with various other BSD versions. Driver writers may like to
use (__FreeBSD_version == 300003) to detect this change.
The prototype FreeBSD/alpha machdep will follow in a couple of days
time.
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.
Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore. This update would have been
insane otherwise.
by functions.
tty_conf.c:
Cleaned up formatting of tables.
Removed another ARGSUSED for consistency.
conf.h:
Introduced typedefs for line discipline functions.
Backed out most of previous revision (it is done elsewhere).
Remove nullmodem().
It may be useful to have a null modem routine, but nullmodem()
wasn't one. nullmodem() was identical to ttymodem() except it
didn't implement MDMBUF (carrier) flow control, didn't do any
wakeups for off to on carrier transitions, and didn't flush the
i/o queues for on to off carrier transitions (flushing has the side
effect of waking up readers and writers) although it did generate
SIGHUPs. The wakeups must normally be done even if nullmodem() is
null in case something is sleeping waiting for a carrier transition.
In any case, the wakeups should be harmless. They may cause bogus
results for select(), but select() is already bogus for nonstandard
line disciplines.
