d6156b173d Add a section describing how to tune ARM kernel options to use an MD_ROOT
filesystem larger than about 50-55 MiB.

The description of VM_KMEM_SIZE_SCALE is roughly as hand-wavy as my
understanding of the option, but at least mentioning that it's a factor
and giving an empirical datapoint that works will give folks some idea
of what to tweak if they have problems.

Also change 'like' to 'such as' where the text is providing an example

783b0eb845 Add a new kernel config option, MD_ROOT_READONLY, which forces on the
MD_READONLY flag for the md device automatically instantiated during
kernel init for an mdroot filesystem.

Note that there is specifically and by design no tunable or sysctl
control over this feature.  Without this option, you already have control
over whether the mdroot fs is writeable using vfs.root.mountfrom.options
from loader(8), the root_rw_mount rcvar, and by using "mount -u[rw] /"
or equivelent on the fly.  This option is being added to provide a way
to make the mdroot fs truly immutable before userland code begins running.

0ac5e9bc89 Port cloudabi32.ko to FreeBSD/arm64.
This change adds an implementation of a sysent for running CloudABI
armv6 and armv7 binaries on FreeBSD/arm64. It is a somewhat literal copy
of the armv6 version, except that it's been patched up to use the proper
registers.

Just like for cloudabi32.ko on FreeBSD/amd64, we make use of a vDSO that
automatically pads system call parameters to 64-bit value. These are
stored in a buffer on the stack, meaning we need to use copyin() and
copyout() unconditionally.

dfa8d6698e bhnd(4): Fix bcma/siba core reset behavior
Add missing support for specifying I/O control flags during core reset,
and resolve a number of siba(4)-specific reset issues:

- Add missing check for target reject flags in siba_is_hw_suspended().
- Remove incorrect wait on SIBA_TMH_BUSY when modifying any target state
  register; this should only be done when waiting for initiated
  transactions to clear.
- Add missing wait on SIBA_IM_BY when asserting SIBA_IM_RJ.
- Overwrite any previously set SIBA_TML_REJ flag when bringing the core
  out of reset. This fixes a lockup that occured when we brought up a core
  (after reboot) that had previously been placed into RESET by siba_bwn(4).

768f1c3fe3 Remove xlint(1).
xlint is currently a fossil.  We have much more useful and alive tools
to do now what xlint did twenty years ago.

I did not cleared some stuff which makes lint operational, in
sys/x86/include and sys/sys, but I might do it as followup.  The
x86/include/ucontext.h and _types.h hacks made to please lint was the
main reason for my initial proposal to classify xlint as obsolete and
to remove it.

Also I do not intend to clear sccs ids.

4332772a77 mailaddr(7): wave goodbye
The information here is somewhere between ancient to obsolete.
It refers to a time in the internet's history when manual routing
was still useful, talks about UUCP as if its modern, and refers
to documents which I had trouble tracking down.

It seems unlikely that a manual page in this form would be useful, so
just remove it.
