b0d268e71f This is obvious to people who've been using the smp kernel for a while,
but now that we've widened the scope of the smp work to -current, it might
be an idea to warn new people that might not have read all the docs yet
that the SMP support needs to be activated via a sysctl.

7fa336b360 remove all the SMP_INVLTLB defines, making the code default for APIC_IO.
replace invldebug with invltlb_ok for throttling smp_invltlb() during boot.

6323aa10bf Man the liferafts! Here comes the long awaited SMP -> -current merge!
There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.

The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.

There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.

This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people.  A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!
