socket support. These utility routines are used only for routing and
pfkey sockets, neither of which have a notion of address, so were
required to mock up fake socket addresses to avoid connection
requirements for applications that did not specify their own fake
addresses (most of them).
Quite a bit of the removed code is #ifdef notdef, since raw sockets
don't support bind() or connect() in practice. Removing this
simplifies the raw socket implementation, and removes two (commented
out) uses of dtom(9).
Fake addresses passed to sendto(2) by applications are ignored for
compatibility reasons, but this is now done in a more consistent way
(and with a comment). Possibly, EINVAL could be returned here in
the future if it is determined that no applications depend on the
semantic inconsistency of specifying a destination address for a
protocol without address support, but this will require some amount
of careful surveying.
NB: This does not affect netinet, netinet6, or other wire protocol
raw sockets, which provide their own independent infrastructure with
control block address support specific to the protocol.

using rawcb_mtx. Hold this mutex while modifying or iterating over
the control list; this means that the mutex is held over calls into
socket delivery code, which no longer causes a lock order reversal as
the routing socket code uses a netisr to avoid recursing socket ->
routing -> socket.
Note: Locking of IPsec consumers of rawcb_list is not included in this
commit.

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!)

is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot). This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago. More commits to come.
This commit includes the following changes:
1) Old-style (pr_usrreq()) protocols are no longer supported, the compatibility
glue for them is deleted, and the kernel will panic on boot if any are compiled
in.
2) Certain protocol entry points are modified to take a process structure,
so they they can easily tell whether or not it is possible to sleep, and
also to access credentials.
3) SS_PRIV is no more, and with it goes the SO_PRIVSTATE setsockopt()
call. Protocols should use the process pointer they are now passed.
4) The PF_LOCAL and PF_ROUTE families have been updated to use the new
style, as has the `raw' skeleton family.
5) PF_LOCAL sockets now obey the process's umask when creating a socket
in the filesystem.
As a result, LINT is now broken. I'm hoping that some enterprising hacker
with a bit more time will either make the broken bits work (should be
easy for netipx) or dike them out.
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.
*' instead of caddr_t and it isn't optional (it never was). Most of the
netipx (and netns) pr_ctlinput functions abuse the second arg instead of
using the third arg but fixing this is beyond the scope of this round
of changes.
