db430f9709 Expand history and authors section of mbuf.9 man page to discuss recent
transition to mbuma (FreeBSD 5.3) and the fact that mbufs are now limited
almost entirely to packet storage, with straight UMA zones being used for
most other network data types.

97070dd5e0 Document a little more the firmware subsystem.
Apart from minor cleanup of the text, it should document
in reasonable detail what the status of the code is.
RELENG_6 has some minor differences there in the way automatic
loading/unloading is handled, but hopefully this should be
fixed by MFC time.

The examples come from Max Laier and Sam Leffler.

cd83bbd2aa Implement ifnet cloning for tun(4)/tap(4).
Make devfs cloning a sysctl/tunable which defaults to on.

If devfs cloning is enabled, only the super-user may create
tun(4)/tap(4)/vmnet(4) instances. Devfs cloning is still enabled by
default; it may be disabled from the loader or via sysctl with
"net.link.tap.devfs_cloning" and "net.link.tun.devfs_cloning".

Disabling its use affects potentially all tun(4)/tap(4) consumers
including OpenSSH, OpenVPN and VMware.

04e5145b7f Based on input from ru & rodrigc document the mount operation in the new
world order:
	mount -t linsysfs linsys /compat/linux/sys
instead of mount_linsysfs.  Now that 6.X requires mount_linsysfs to
work.  This is why there is a mount_linsysfs in 6.X and not in -current.

9079fff550 Align the interfaces for the various watchdogs and make the interface
behave as expected.

Also:
- Return an error if WD_PASSIVE is passed in to the ioctl as only
  WD_ACTIVE is implemented at the moment. See sys/watchdog.h for an
  explanation of the difference between WD_ACTIVE and WD_PASSIVE.
- Remove the I_HAVE_TOTALLY_LOST_MY_SENSE_OF_HUMOR define. If you've
  lost your sense of humor, than don't add a define.

Specific changes:

i80321_wdog.c
  Don't roll your own passive watchdog tickle as this would defeat the
  purpose of an active (userland) watchdog tickle.

ichwd.c / ipmi.c:
  WD_ACTIVE means active patting of the watchdog by a userland process,
  not whether the watchdog is active. See sys/watchdog.h.

kern_clock.c:
  (software watchdog) Remove a check for WD_ACTIVE as this does not make
  sense here. This reverts r1.181.
