Machines can stall out because mbufs are low, however sometimes we won't
see "requests denied", instead we see user land processes or kernel threads
blocking waiting for mbufs because they set M_WAIT. These consumers do not
see errors, only stalling.
Unfortunately until now, netstat did not export this information
so you could have experienced an mbuf shortage and have no way of
seeing it unless you happen to run netstat at the exact time of the
shortage and see "in use" = "max".
By exporting the number of times processes are blocked, we can
effectively see how often non-interrupt context threads are effectively
"denied".

A default install on large memory machines with multiple 10gigE interfaces
were not being given enough mbufs to do full bandwidth TCP or NFS traffic.
To keep the value somewhat reasonable, we scale back the number of
maxuers by 1/6 past the 384 point. This gives us enough mbufs for most
of our pretty basic 10gigE line-speed tests to complete.
This enables CPU searches (which read tdq_load) to operate independently
of any contention on the spinlock. Some scheduler-intensive workloads
running on an 8C single-socket SNB Xeon show considerable improvement with
this change (2-3% perf improvement, 5-6% decrease in CPU util).

Make sure always-inline functions get inlined. <rdar://problem/12423986>
Without this change, when the estimated cost for inlining a function with
an "alwaysinline" attribute was lower than the inlining threshold, the
getInlineCost function was returning that estimated cost rather than the
special InlineCost::AlwaysInlineCost value. That is fine in the normal
inlining case, but it can fail when the inliner considers the opportunity
cost of inlining into an internal or linkonce-odr function. It may decide
not to inline the always-inline function in that case. The fix here is just
to make getInlineCost always return the special value for always-inline
functions. I ran into this building clang with libc++. Tablegen failed to
link because of an always-inline function that was not inlined. I have been
unable to reduce the testcase down to a reasonable size.
This should fix the link errors that were reported when atf-run was
compiled with clang -stdlib=libc++. In this case, at -O3 optimization,
some calls to basic_ios::clear() were not inlined, even when the
function was marked __always_inline__.

Also update the port reset time from 250ms to 50ms. Some USB devices
have a hard limit in hardware at 222ms for the port reset time and will
not enumerate unless this delay is closer to the usb.org defined value.
This patch can fix enumeration with some USB devices.

Fix the issue by setting BGE_PHY_NO_WIRESPEED such that brgphy(4)

While I'm here move PHY specific feature/bug configuration to new

more appropriate named kernel options for the very distinct
send and receive path.
"options SOCKET_SEND_COW" enables VM page copy-on-write based
sending of data on an outbound socket.
NB: The COW based send mechanism is not safe and may result
in kernel crashes.
"options SOCKET_RECV_PFLIP" enables VM kernel/userspace page
flipping for special disposable pages attached as external
storage to mbufs.
Only the naming of the kernel options is changed and their
corresponding #ifdef sections are adjusted. No functionality
is added or removed.
