minor of libc and the major of libutil). For little-endian architectures
merge the bnswap() assembly versions with nto* and hton* using symbols
aliasing. Use symbol renaming for the bswap function in this case to avoid
namespace pollution.
Declare bswap* in machine/bswap.h, not machine/endian.h. For little-endian
machines, common code for inline macros go in machine/byte_swap.h
Sync libkern with libc.
Adjust #include in kernel sources for machine/bswap.h.
- returned EOPNOTSUPP rather than -1.
- no check for negative offset.
many of these fix potential security problems in these drivers.

the d_mmap cdev routine should be changed to have a prototype like:

-sys/lib/libkern builds as library per default (as it was documented all
the time)
-ports able to LKM set "KERN_AS=obj" explicitely in their Makefiles
(for now; should depend on actual "option LKM" or -better- functions
included for LKM use should be pulled in by a stub)
-always link libcompat before libkern - libkern stuff can be referred to
by libcompat, but not the other way
u-area in machine-dependent code. Instead, call exit2() to schedule
the reaper to free them for us, once it is safe to do so (i.e. we are
no longer running on the dead proc's vmspace and stack).
tty structures, and on some machines (namely the DraCo internal lpt, and some
multi-i/o boards for Amigas and DraCos), tying spltty to the pretty high printer
interupt level would hurt serial performance.
On all affected ports but Amiga, spllpt() has been defined in machine/intr.h
to be spltty(), thus preserving old behaviour. Portmasters are encouraged to
change is, if they feel something else is better (e.g., one of its own were
possible).
