for timehands consumers, by using fences.
Ensure that the timehands->th_generation reset to zero is visible
before the data update is visible [*]. tc_setget() allowed data update
writes to become visible before generation (but not on TSO
architectures).
Remove tc_setgen(), tc_getgen() helpers, use atomics inline [**].

seq_write_begin(), instead of the load_rmb/rbm_load functions. The
update does not need to be atomic due to the write lock owned.
Similarly, in seq_write_end(), update of *seqp needs not be atomic.
Only store must be atomic with release.
For seq_read(), the natural operation is the load acquire of the
sequence value, express this directly with atomic_load_acq_int()
instead of using custom partial fence implementation
atomic_load_rmb_int().
In seq_consistent, use atomic_thread_fence_acq() which provides the
desired semantic of ordering reads before fence before the re-reading
of *seqp, instead of custom atomic_rmb_load_int().

provide a semantic defined by the C11 fences with corresponding
memory_order.
atomic_thread_fence_acq() gives r | r, w, where r and w are read and
write accesses, and | denotes the fence itself.
atomic_thread_fence_rel() is r, w | w.
atomic_thread_fence_acq_rel() is the combination of the acquire and
release in single operation. Note that reads after the acq+rel fence
could be made visible before writes preceeding the fence.
atomic_thread_fence_seq_cst() orders all accesses before/after the
fence, and the fence itself is globally ordered against other
sequentially consistent atomic operations.

However, I've observed the active queue scan stopping when there are
frequent free page shortages and the inactive queue is steadily refilled
by other mechanisms, such as the sequential access heuristic in vm_fault()
or madvise(2). To remedy this problem, record the time of the last active
queue scan, and always scan a number of pages proportional to the time
since the last scan, regardless of whether that last scan was a
timeout-triggered ("pass == 0") or free-page-shortage-triggered ("pass >
0") scan.
Also, on a timeout-triggered scan, allow a full scan of the active queue
when the system is short of inactive pages.

jail.conf parameters. This flag disallows redefinition of the parameter.
"name" and/or "jid" are automatically defined in jail.conf by using
the jail names at the front of jail parameter definitions. However,
one could override them by using a variable with the same name like
$name = "foo". This confused the parser and could end up with SIGSEGV.
Note that this change also affects a case when all of parameters are
defined in the command line arguments, not in jail.conf. Specifically,
"jail -c name=j1 name=j2" no longer works. This should be harmless.

The number of available lock list entries for a thread is LOCK_CHILDCOUNT,
and each entry can record up to LOCK_NCHILDREN locks. When iterating over
the locks held by a thread, a bound on the loop index is therefore given
by LOCK_CHILDCOUNT * LOCK_NCHILDREN; WITNESS_COUNT is an unrelated
constant.

Place sched_random nearer to where it's first used: moving the
code nearer to where it is used makes the code easier to read
and we can reduce the initial "#ifdef SMP" island.
Reword a little the comment and clean some whitespaces
while here.
The 6205 (Taylor Peak) in the Lenovo X230 works fine in 5GHz 11a and 11n HT20,
but not 11n HT40. The NIC goes RX deaf the moment HT40 is configured.
It's so RX deaf that it doesn't even hear beacons and the firmware sends
"BEACON MISS" events. That's pretty deaf.
I tried configuring up the HT40 flags in monitor mode and it worked - so
I assumed that doing the transition from 20 -> 40MHz channel configuration
when going auth->assoc (ie, after the NIC has been partially configured)
is a problem.
So for now, let's just always set them if they're available.
Tested:
* Intel 5300, STA mode, 5GHz HT/40 AP; 2GHz HT/20 AP
* Intel 6205, STA mode, 5GHz HT/40, HT20, 11a AP; 2GHz HT/20 AP
This was pointed out to me by coworkers trying to use FreeBSD-HEAD
in the office on their Thinkpad T420p laptops.
TODO:
* I don't like how the HT40 flags are configured - the whole interop/
protection config should be re-checked. Notably, I think curhtprotmode
is 0 in a lot of cases, which means "no interoperability" and i think
that's busted.
