Add an API for easily creating userspace threads in kernelspace.
This change refactors the existing create_thread() function to be more
generic. It replaces almost all of its arguments by a callback that can
be used to extract the thread ID and copy it out to the right place, but
also to perform additional initialization steps, such as setting the
trapframe. This also makes the difference between thr_new() and
thr_create() more clear in my opinion.
This function is going to be used by the CloudABI compatibility layer.
It looks like the OpenSolaris compatibility framework already provides a
function called thread_create(). Rename this function to
do_thread_create() and use a macro to deal with the namespacing
conflict. A similar approach is already used for thread_exit().
Add SIOCGI2C ioctl support to the driver. Would work only on ConnectX-3
with fresh firmware. The low level code is based on code provided by
Mellanox.
Thanks to Mellanox and their distributor Must (http://mustcompany.ru)
for providing hardware.

Add support for reading i2c SFP/SFP+ data from NIC driver and
presenting most interesting fields via ifconfig -v.
This version supports Intel ixgbe driver only.
Tested on: Cisco,Intel,Mellanox,ModuleTech,Molex transceivers
* Add new net/sff8436.h containing constants used to access
QSFP+ data via i2c inteface. These constants has been taken
from SFF-8436 "QSFP+ 10 Gbs 4X PLUGGABLE TRANSCEIVER" standard
rev 4.8.
* Add support for printing QSFP+ information from 40G NICs
such as Chelsio T5.
Example:
cxl1: flags=8843<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,SIMPLEX,MULTICAST> metric 0 mtu 1500
options=ec07bb<RXCSUM,TXCSUM,VLAN_MTU,VLAN_HWTAGGING,JUMBO_MTU,.....>

GCC: Add a new option "-fstack-protector-strong"
This includes additional functions to be protected: those that
have local array definitions, or have references to local frame
addresses. This is a new option in GCC-4.9 that was relicensed
by Han Shen from Google under GPLv2.

Correct naming of sysctl pmtud_blackhole_activated_min_mss.
Clarify some statements around PMTUD blackhole detection to make
the behavior more clear in the man page.
When compiling on -current from r284356 to r285986, the host's
crunchgen can't be used because builds of rescue break when STRIP= was
used to prevent stripping of binaries. Direct commit because -current
code is different. Building 10 on current is common enough to warrnat
a safety belt since this has been broken for two months. The offending
change was never in stable/10.
Since the case where secflavor < 0 indicates the security flavor is
to be negotiated, it could be a Kerberized mount. As such, filling
in the "principal" argument using the canonized host name makes sense.
If it is negotiated as AUTH_SYS, the "principal" argument is meaningless
but harmless.

Build debug version of rmlock's methods only when LOCK_DEBUG > 0.
Currently LOCK_DEBUG is always defined in sys/lock.h (0 or 1).
This means that debugging code always built. In addition the kernel
modules have always defined LOCK_DEBUG as 1. So, debugging rmlock code
is always used by kernel modules.
MFC r284918:
Add helper fill_based_sd(9).
MFC r284919:
Add x86 PT_GETFSBASE, PT_GETGSBASE machine-depended ptrace requests to
obtain the thread %fs and %gs bases. Add x86 PT_SETFSBASE and
PT_SETGSBASE requests to set the bases from debuggers. The set
requests, similarly to the sysarch({I386,AMD64}_SET_FSBASE), override
the corresponding segment registers.
MFC r284965:
Document x86 machine-specific ptrace(2) requests.
MFC r285011:
