the other routines of the same spirit.
Adjust file-system code to use it.
Keep vaccess() for KPI compatibility and to keep element of least
surprise. A "diagnostic" message warning that vaccess() is deprecated will
be printed when it's used (obviously, only in DIAGNOSTIC kernels).

dirent is no longer cached in lookup and we do the lookup ourselves
in rename, we are most definitely not allowed to assert that it
matches the source vnode passed as an argument. In case the source
node does not exist or has been replaced, punt with ENOENT.
Also, nuke some misleading prehistoric comments which haven't been
valid in over a year.
Fixes PR kern/41128 by Nicolas Joly
Make VFS hooks dynamic while we're here and say farewell to VFS_ATTACH and
VFS_HOOKS_ATTACH linksets.
As a consequence, most of the file systems can now be loaded as new style
modules.
Quick sanity check by ad@.
Introduce a per-FS rename lock and new vfsops to manipulate it.
Get this lock while renaming. Also add another relookup() in do_sys_rename,
which is a hack to kludge around some of the worst deficiencies of
ufs_rename.

shutdown). There are still problems with device access and a PR will be
filed.
- Kill checkalias(). Allow multiple vnodes to reference a single device.
- Don't play dangerous tricks with block vnodes to ensure that only one
vnode can describe a block device. Instead, prohibit concurrent opens of
block devices. As a bonus remove the unreliable code that prevents
multiple file system mounts on the same device. It's no longer needed.
- Track opens by vnode and by device. Issue cdev_close() when the last open
goes away, instead of abusing vnode::v_usecount to tell if the device is
open.
The general trend is to remove it from all kernel interfaces and
this is a start. In case the calling lwp is desired, curlwp should
be used.
quick consensus on tech-kern
same file were renamed simultaneously, there was a window where
directory entry cached in the vnode during lookup would be replaced
before calling rename. This lead to one directory entry getting
renamed twice and the other one getting zero renames. Do a relookup
in rename to make sure we have the correct directory entry.
Thanks go to Greg Oster for reporting the problem, helping with
debugging and thoroughly testing the patch.

XXX: this is just a quick fix to stop the diagnostic panic. I
think ENOSPC should be treated elsewhere depending on how much
memory tmpfs claims.
