has been VOP_OPEN()'d. if the fifo is being accessed via a layered fs,
v_usecount is always one (representing the hold by the layered vnode)
regardless of how many times the vnode has been opened. instead, keep a
separate counter for opens. fixes PR 17195 and probably 17724.
gets reset properly when the old parent exits before the child. A flag
is set in old parent process when the child is reparented in ptrace(2).
If it's set when process is exiting, all running processes have their
'old parent process' pointer checked and reset if appropriate. Also
change to use 'struct proc *' pointer directly, rather than pid_t.

indicating an unhandled "command". ERESTART is -1, which can lead to
confusion. ERESTART has been moved to -3 and EPASSTHROUGH has been
placed at -4. No ioctl code should now return -1 anywhere. The
ioctl() system call is now properly restartable.
- when yielding the cpu while using the vnode's page list, use a marker page
to keep our place in the list (like the other cases where we drop the lock).
- wait until no one else has the page busy before deciding if the page needs
to be cleaned. a page will be dirty while it's being initialized but will
be marked clean before PG_BUSY is cleared.

VOP_STRATEGY() directly, but NFS uses this flag to decide whether or not
to hand the buffer off to an nfsiod thread.

These changes will allow platforms like x86 (XMM) and PowerPC
(AltiVec) to export extended register sets in a sane manner.
* Use __HAVE_PTRACE_MACHDEP to export x86 XMM registers (standard
FP + SSE/SSE2) using PT_{GET,SET}XMMREGS (in the machdep
ptrace request space).
* Use __HAVE_PROCFS_MACHDEP to export x86 XMM registers via
/proc/N/xmmregs in procfs.
other code has this limit. Also while I am here, convert the magic 16 into
a #define constant and use it in the appropriate places. This is a temporary
fix, since all this read-ahead business is XXXUBC anyway.
