79525d59b2 Document lock order reversals possible when calling allocation functions
with vnode interlocks held.

Emphasize that users need to be careful with malloc flags versus mbuf
flags.

Remove stale portion in vnode.9 about v_tag.  We don't have it anylonger.

efbc63a783 Further clarifications of the #ifdef/#if/#elif/#endif style information,
largely submitted by bde.  Return our exemption of the #ifdef lint
comments since the exemption is intended to handle a particularly
common current case without mandating change.  Improve language and
spelling, and slightly clarify the notions associated specifically
with #elif.

5ab0c4ceeb Clarify style(9) WRT comments following #endif, #else.
The closing comment is required only for long conditionally defined
code sections, with the exception of lint cases.  Attempt to document
also the logic for using '!' before the SOMETIMESSOMETHGINGHERE.
The goal of these comments is to make complex cases more
comprehensible, not to require them in all cases.  The rules here are
derived from behavior used in 90+% of the kernel source code.

2c38619b52 Slight overhaul of arc4random() and friends.
One bug fixed:  Use getmicrouptime() to trigger reseeds so that we
cannot be tricked by a clock being stepped backwards.

Express parameters in natural units and with natural names.

Don't use struct timeval more than we need to.

Various stylistic and readability polishing.

Introduce arc4rand(void *ptr, u_int len, int reseed) function which
returns a stream of pseudo-random bytes, observing the automatic
reseed criteria as well as allowing forced reseeds.

Rewrite arc4random() in terms of arc4rand().
