hannken 067a3b897d Update the file system snapshot driver:
- Document the kernel thread.
- Rename some functions and variables.
- Return EROFS where appropriate.
- Use shifts instead of 64-bit divide.
- Use a simple_lock to make it MP-safe.
- Add M_CANFAIL to malloc to avoid panic on large cluster size.
- Allow sparse file for backing store and use VOP_BALLOC() to allocate
  space. Default size of backing store is the size of the file system.

wiz 68c32a13a8 Drop trailing spaces; new sentence, new line; fix width
argument to avoid confusion (indent is only magic for -offset); add a comma
for easier reading.

hannken fbae381aaa The file system snapshot pseudo driver.
Uses a hook in spec_strategy() to save data written from a mounted
file system to its block device and a hook in dounmount().

Not enabled by default in any kernel config.
