freebsd kernel with SKQ

peter ca67637f92 Convert lists for bufs attached to vnodes from a LIST to a TAILQ.
- Use TAILQ_* macros extensively instead of internal names
- use b_xflags instead of the NOLIST magic number hack in the next pointer
- clean bufs are inserted at the tail rather than the head.
- redo dirty buffer insert so that metadata (negative lbn) goes to the
  tail directly rather than at the HEAD.  This makes a difference when
  inserting dirty data blocks in lbn sorted order since data block
  insertion will not have to bypass all the metadata cruft.  data is
  lbn sorted since it makes sense for clustering and writeback ordering,
  while metadata sorting doesn't help much since the lbn's are
  meaningless when walking the list for writebacks.

Small systems will not notice much (if any) benefit from this, but really
busy systems with large dirty block lists should get a lot more.

I've tested this with softdep, and it doesn't seem to mind the change of
queueing of metadata.

This is the top level of the FreeBSD source directory.  This file

For copyright information, please see the file COPYRIGHT in this
directory (additional copyright information also exists for some
sources in this tree - please see the specific source directories for
more information).

The Makefile in this directory supports a number of targets for
building components (or all) of the FreeBSD source tree, the most
commonly used one being ``world'', which rebuilds and installs
everything in the FreeBSD system from the source tree except the
kernel and the contents of /etc.  Please see the top of the Makefile
in this directory for more information on the standard build targets
and compile-time flags.

Building a kernel with config(8) is a somewhat more involved process,
documentation for which can be found at:
   http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/kernelconfig.html
And in the config(8) man page.

The sample kernel configuration files reside in the sys/i386/conf
sub-directory (assuming that you've installed the kernel sources), the
file named GENERIC being the one used to build your initial installation
kernel.  The file LINT contains entries for all possible devices, not
just those commonly used, and is meant more as a general reference
than an actual kernel configuration file (a kernel built from it
wouldn't even run).
