avoid having to allocate space in the 'stackgap'
- which is very LWP unfriendly.
The additional code for non-emulation namei() is trivial, the reduction for
the emulations is massive.
The vnode for a processes emulation root is saved in the cwdi structure
during process exec.
If the emulation root the TRYEMULROOT flag are set, namei() will do an initial
search for absolute pathnames in the emulation root, if that fails it will
retry from the normal root.
".." at the emulation root will always go to the real root, even in the middle
of paths and when expanding symlinks.
Absolute symlinks found using absolute paths in the emulation root will be
relative to the emulation root (so /usr/lib/xxx.so -> /lib/xxx.so links
inside the emulation root don't need changing).
If the root of the emulation would be returned (for an emulation lookup), then
the real root is returned instead (matching the behaviour of emul_lookup,
but being a cheap comparison here) so that programs that scan "../.."
looking for the root dircetory don't loop forever.
The target for symbolic links is no longer mangled (it used to get the
CHECK_ALT_xxx() treatment, so could get /emul/xxx prepended).
CHECK_ALT_xxx() are no more. Most of the change is deleting them, and adding
TRYEMULROOT to the flags to NDINIT().
A lot of the emulation system call stubs could now be deleted.
pointers to and from 64bit kernel pointers. Instead use the defines
NETBSD32PTR64(p32) to read a 32bit pointer and (the new) NETBSD32PTR32(p32,p64)
to write a 32bit pointer throughout.
The 32bit pointer is now a struct to enforce the above.
amd64 (with linux emul) and sparc64 will both compile (when the arch stuff
goes in soon), and amd64 still runs some i386 binaries.
sys_stat() and friends, instead use do_sys_stat() and do_sys_fstat()
that write the answer into a kernel buffer (on stack) that can be
converted to the correct form and written the userspace.
I've test compiled a few kernels, and tested i386 netbsd1.6 ls.
Given I think I've fixed some bugs, it might be 50-50 with new ones.
P_*/L_* naming convention, and rename the in-kernel flags to avoid
conflict. (P_ -> PK_, L_ -> LW_ ). Add back the (now unused) LSDEAD
constant.
Restores source compatibility with pre-newlock2 tools like ps or top.

I tracked this one to the `netbsd32_adjust_limits()' function (called
when creating a new process under compat_netbsd32), where data and
stack limits are set without checking for shared `p_limit' structure
(p_limit->p_refcnt > 1). This explain the side effect where processes
have their limits changed when a compat_netbsd32 (or compat_linux32)
program is run.
The fix is to use `dosetrlimit()' to ensure the needed copy-on-write
behaviour for shared structure.
