Because pseudo-terminal master file descriptors no longer have a vnode
underneath, we have to fill in fstat() values ourselves. Make our
implementation somewhat sane by returning the timestamps of the TTY
device node that corresponds with our file descriptor.

the code to prevent useless waste of space.
- Remove support for quote bits. There is not a single driver that needs
these bits anymore. This means putc() now accepts a char instead of an
int.
- Remove the unneeded catq() and nextc() routines. They were only used
by the old TTY layer.
- Convert the clist code to use ANSI C prototypes.
In the MPSAFE TTY branch I noticed the vfs timestamps inside devfs were
allocated with 0, where the getattr() routine bumps the timestamps to
boottime if the value is below 3600. The reason why it has been designed
like this, is because timestamps during boot are likely to be invalid.
This means that device nodes that are created on demand (posix_openpt())
have timestamps with a value of boottime, which is not what we want.
Solve this by calling vfs_timestamp() inside devfs_alloc().

script mode like the MRI(Microtec Research Inc.) "librarian" program.
Originally this option is provided by Binutils ar(1) to ease the
transition for developers who are used to writing "librarian" scripts.
We added this option to BSD ar(1) because:
1. Further improve the compatibility with Binutils ar(1).
2. There are still a few software using this -M option. (at least one
in our ports collection)

initialize the vattr structure in VOP_GETATTR() with VATTR_NULL(),
vattr_null() or by zeroing it. Remove these to allow preinitialization
of fields work in vn_stat(). This is needed to get birthtime initialized
correctly.

VOP_GETATTR() call in vn_stat(). Thus if a file system doesn't
initialize those fields in VOP_GETATTR() they will have a sane default
value.

Reverse the direction of pmap_promote_pde()'s traversal over the specified
page table page. The direction of the traversal can matter if
pmap_promote_pde() has to remove write access (PG_RW) from a PTE that
hasn't been modified (PG_M). In general, if there are two or more such
PTEs to choose among, it is better to write protect the one nearer the
high end of the page table page rather than the low end. This is because
most programs access memory in an ascending direction. The net result of
this change is a sometimes significant reduction in the number of failed
promotion attempts and the number of pages that are write protected by
pmap_promote_pde().

Tweak the promotion test in pmap_promote_pde(). Specifically, test PG_A
before PG_M. This sometimes prevents unnecessary removal of write access
from a PTE. Overall, the net result is fewer demotions and promotion
failures.

these timers in turn are driven at frequencies as low as 5MHz, resulting
in bad granularity compared to the TICK timers. However, don't employ
the workaround for the BlackBird erratum #1 when using the TICK timer
on machines with cheetah-class CPUs for performance reasons.
