It should play nicely with the existing BSD ptys.
By default, the system will use the BSD ptys, one can set the sysctl
kern.pts.enable to 1 to make it use the new pts system.
The max number of pty that can be allocated on a system can be changed with the
sysctl kern.pts.max. It defaults to 1000, and can be increased, but it is not
recommanded, as any pty with a number > 999 won't be handled by whatever uses
utmp(5).
modified bit emulation traps on Alpha while holding locks in the
sysctl handler.
A better solution would be to pass a hint to the Alpha pmap code to
tell mark these pages as modified when they as they are being wired,
but that appears to be more difficult to implement.

placeholder similar to KTR_DEV. Explain the use of KTR_DEV and
KTR_SUBSYS in a comment as well.
- Retire KTR_WITNESS and instead have KTR_WITNESS default to off but use
KTR_SUBSYS if it is enabled.
1) unregsiter kqueue filter for EVFILT_LIO.
2) free uma_zones.
3) call setsid directly to enter another session rather than
implementing by itself.

The success of the cluster allocation is checked through a field in the
mbuf structure. This change is non-functional but properly silences code
inspection tools.

Note that it would be nice to have notification of suspend, but it's more
difficult since there would have to be a method of doing request/ack
to userland and automatically timing out if no response. apm(4) has a
similar mechanism.

An executable contains at most one PT_INTERP program header. Therefore,
the loop that searches for it can terminate after it is found rather than
iterating over the entire set of program headers.
Eliminate an unneeded initialization.

prototypes, as the majority of new functions added have been in this
style. Changing prototype style now results in gcc noticing that the
implementation of vn_pollrecord() has a 'short' argument instead of
'int' as prototyped in vnode.h, so correct that definition. In practice
this didn't matter as only poll flags in the lower 16 bits are used.

devclass's parent pointer if the two drivers share the same devclass. This
can happen if the drivers use the same new-bus name. For example, we
currently have 3 drivers that use the name "pci": the generic PCI bus
driver, the ACPI PCI bus driver, and the OpenFirmware PCI bus driver. If
the ACPI PCI bus driver was defined as a subclass of the generic PCI bus
driver, then without this check the "pci" devclass would point to itself
as its parent and device_probe_child() would spin forever when it
encountered the first PCI device that did have a matching driver.

- Add new lock_init() and lock_destroy() functions to setup and teardown
lock_object objects including KTR logging and registering with WITNESS.
- Move all the handling of LO_INITIALIZED out of witness and the various
lock init functions into lock_init() and lock_destroy().
- Remove the constants for static indices into the lock_classes[] array
and change the code outside of subr_lock.c to use LOCK_CLASS to compare
against a known lock class.
- Move the 'show lock' ddb function and lock_classes[] array out of
kern_mutex.c over to subr_lock.c.

taskqueue_start_threads(struct taskqueue **, int count, int pri,
const char *name, ...);
This allows the creation of 1 or more threads that will service a single
taskqueue. Also rework the taskqueue_create() API to remove the API change
that was introduced a while back. Creating a taskqueue doesn't rely on
the presence of a process structure, and the proc mechanics are much better
encapsulated in taskqueue_start_threads(). Also clean up the
taskqueue_terminate() and taskqueue_free() functions to safely drain
pending tasks and remove all associated threads.
The TASKQUEUE_DEFINE and TASKQUEUE_DEFINE_THREAD macros have been changed
to use the new API, but drivers compiled against the old definitions will
still work. Thus, recompiling drivers is not a strict requirement.
