jdolecek ade4df3adc implement support for forced LKM load, which makes the kernel skip
the version checks, using new -f flag and LMFORCE ioctl

Hopefully the description in the manpage is discouraging enough so that
nobody would dare even _think_ of using forced loads. A warning
message is written to stderr when this is used, just in case.

ragge 46943c2cf6 Try first to use /dev/ksyms to get kernel symbols, if that fails mutter a
bit and fallback to the old way.

jdolecek 40d3f26f8c desupport LMRESERV_O, anything relying on it doesn't have chance of working
anyway due to numerous kernel structure changes

atatat 1784bd0a07 If no other name is specified, and machdep.booted_kernel is present
and names a file, use that as a the default kernel, otherwise fall
back to /netbsd.

Makes lkms work *much* better when you're testing kernels that are not
named /netbsd.

gehenna a5ac3deb40 Split the overload block/character device major.
The 3rd argument is character device major and
the 4th argument is block device major.

mrg 72a64c5437 add ELF support, mostly from joda@pdc.kth.se (Johan Danielsson) in PR#6149,
updated for the symtab support for a.out (non for ELF yet) and other cleanup
by myself.  should work on the alpha as well as other ELF ports...
remove the ld(1) output by default, rather than leaving little binary turds
across the filesystem...

ross 855480012b Invert the meaning of -s, from "don't load symbols" to "load symbols".
Document that this is expensive (and why) in the BUGS section.

mjacob c84aa13b30 Mods for alpha: doesn't work yet, but this is as good a placeholder as
any to note the ld flags to actually use. Still to do: elf loading.
