mutex releases to not require flags for the cases when preemption is
not allowed:
The purpose of the MTX_NOSWITCH and SWI_NOSWITCH flags is to prevent
switching to a higher priority thread on mutex releease and swi schedule,
respectively when that switch is not safe. Now that the critical section
API maintains a per-thread nesting count, the kernel can easily check
whether or not it should switch without relying on flags from the
programmer. This fixes a few bugs in that all current callers of
swi_sched() used SWI_NOSWITCH, when in fact, only the ones called from
fast interrupt handlers and the swi_sched of softclock needed this flag.
Note that to ensure that swi_sched()'s in clock and fast interrupt
handlers do not switch, these handlers have to be explicitly wrapped
in critical_enter/exit pairs. Presently, just wrapping the handlers is
sufficient, but in the future with the fully preemptive kernel, the
interrupt must be EOI'd before critical_exit() is called. (critical_exit()
can switch due to a deferred preemption in a fully preemptive kernel.)
I've tested the changes to the interrupt code on i386 and alpha. I have
not tested ia64, but the interrupt code is almost identical to the alpha
code, so I expect it will work fine. PowerPC and ARM do not yet have
interrupt code in the tree so they shouldn't be broken. Sparc64 is
broken, but that's been ok'd by jake and tmm who will be fixing the
interrupt code for sparc64 shortly.

a bunch of completions at once- either returning 16 bit handles in mailbox
registers, or in a resposne queue entry that has a whole wad of 16 bit handles.

Add more instrumentation plus ISP_GET_STATS and ISP_CLR_STATS ioctls.

If we haven't set HBA role yet, always return success from isp_fc_runstate.

(There has been some discussion, whether ENOENT or EBADF is more
appropriate. I choose the latter, since the operation is not supported
on the file descriptor at that time, even if it was, immediately before.)

reinserted by a userland process, will lose a number of packet
attributes, including their source interface. This may affect
the behavior of later rules, and while not strictly a BUG, may
cause unexpected behavior if not clearly documented. A similar
note for natd(8) might be desirable.
