jeff 3b1acbdce2 - Pass the priority argument from *sleep() into sleepq and down into
sched_sleep().  This removes extra thread_lock() acquisition and
   allows the scheduler to decide what to do with the static boost.
 - Change the priority arguments to cv_* to match sleepq/msleep/etc.
   where 0 means no priority change.  Catch -1 in cv_broadcastpri() and
   convert it to 0 for now.
 - Set a flag when sleeping in a way that is compatible with swapping
   since direct priority comparisons are meaningless now.
 - Add a sysctl to ule, kern.sched.static_boost, that defaults to on which
   controls the boost behavior.  Turning it off gives better performance
   in some workloads but needs more investigation.
 - While we're modifying sleepq, change signal and broadcast to both
   return with the lock held as the lock was held on enter.
