- clear PSL_NT. it can be set by userland because setting it
isn't a privileged operation.

to only call pckbc_machdep_cnattach() if this is present. This allows
pckbc_machdep_cnattach() to be omitted entirely on most ports, where it only
returns ENXIO anyway.
The devices with this attribute at the moment are pc(4) on i386 and bebox, and
pckbc on sparc, where pckbc_machdep_cnattach() mysteriously returns 0 rather
than ENXIO.
* lpt device is defined in MI place (dev/ppbus/files.ppbus), dev/ic/lpt.c
is included there too; dev/ic/lpt.c is not included if ppbus is
configured or if there is alternative platform lpt (like for pc532)
* g/c MD lpt definitions and custom puc/upc attachments,
glue moved to conf/files and dev/pci/files.pci respectively; remove
device lpt definition from dev/isa/files.isa
* add ppbus parport attribute, atppc device attachments, adjust plip and lpt

is empty besides calling switch_exit(). So, rename switch_exit() to
cpu_exit() and modify the routine to call lwp_exit2() direct.
This saves couple cycles on the exit path.
process context ('reaper').
From within the exiting process context:
* deactivate pmap and free vmspace while we can still block
* introduce MD cpu_lwp_free() - this cleans all MD-specific context (such
as FPU state), and is the last potentially blocking operation;
all of cpu_wait(), and most of cpu_exit(), is now folded into cpu_lwp_free()
* process is now immediatelly marked as zombie and made available for pickup
by parent; the remaining last lwp continues the exit as fully detached
* MI (rather than MD) code bumps uvmexp.swtch, cpu_exit() is now same
for both 'process' and 'lwp' exit
uvm_lwp_exit() is modified to never block; the u-area memory is now
always just linked to the list of available u-areas. Introduce (blocking)
uvm_uarea_drain(), which is called to release the excessive u-area memory;
this is called by parent within wait4(), or by pagedaemon on memory shortage.
uvm_uarea_free() is now private function within uvm_glue.c.
MD process/lwp exit code now always calls lwp_exit2() immediatelly after
switching away from the exiting lwp.
g/c now unneeded routines and variables, including the reaper kernel thread

clients, and a pseudo-device for userspace access.
The attribute is named `opencrypto'. The pseudo-device is renamed to
"crypto", which has a dependency on "opencrypto". The sys/conf/majors
entry and pseudo-device attach entrypoint are updated to match the
new pseudo-device name.
Fast IPsec (sys/netipsec/files.ipsec) now lists a dependency on the
"opencrypto" attribute. Drivers for crypto accelerators (ubsec,
hifn775x) also pull in opencrypto, as providers of opencrypto transforms.
