- struct timeval time is gone
time.tv_sec -> time_second
- struct timeval mono_time is gone
mono_time.tv_sec -> time_uptime
- access to time via
{get,}{micro,nano,bin}time()
get* versions are fast but less precise
- support NTP nanokernel implementation (NTP API 4)

- seed2 is necessary, but use it as "seed2 + x" not "seed2 ^ x".
- skipping number is not needed, so disable it for 16bit generator (makes
the repetition period to 30000)
* Include "opt_inet.h" everywhere IP-ids are generated with ip_newid(),
so the RANDOM_IP_ID option is visible. Also in ip_id(), to ensure
the prototype for ip_randomid() is made visible.
* Add new sysctl to enable randomized IP-ids, provided the kernel was
configured with RANDOM_IP_ID. (The sysctl defaults to zero, and is
a read-only zero if RANDOM_IP_ID is not configured).
Note that the implementation of randomized IP ids is still defective,
and should not be enabled at all (even if configured) without
very careful deliberation. Caveat emptor.
