- Addresses the issue described in PR/38828.
- Some simplification in threading and sleepq subsystems.
- Eliminates pmap_collect() and, as a side note, allows pmap optimisations.
- Eliminates XS_CTL_DATA_ONSTACK in scsipi code.
- Avoids few scans on LWP list and thus potentially long holds of proc_lock.
- Cuts ~1.5k lines of code. Reduces amd64 kernel size by ~4k.
- Removes __SWAP_BROKEN cases.

- Avoid atomics in more places.
- Remove the per-descriptor mutex, and just use filedesc_t::fd_lock.
It was only being used to synchronize close, and in any case we needed
to take fd_lock to free the descriptor slot.
- Optimize certain paths for the <NDFDFILE case.
- Sprinkle more comments and assertions.
- Cache more stuff in filedesc_t.
- Fix numerous minor bugs spotted along the way.
- Restructure how the open files array is maintained, for clarity and so
that we can eliminate the membar_consumer() call in fd_getfile(). This is
mostly syntactic sugar; the main functional change is that fd_nfiles now
lives alongside the open file array.

- simple file syscalls are like close() are between 1 to 10% faster.
- some nice improvements, e.g. poll(1000) which is ~50% faster.

- A fix for an issue that can lead to "ffs_valloc: dup" due to dirty cg
buffers being invalidated. Problem discovered and patch by dholland@.
- If the syncer fails to lazily sync a vnode due to lock contention,
retry 1 second later instead of 30 seconds later.
- Flush inode atime updates every ~10 seconds (this makes most sense with
logging). Presently they didn't hit the disk for read-only files or
devices until the file system was unmounted. It would be better to trickle
the updates out but that would require more extensive changes.
- Fix issues with file system corruption, busy looping and other nasty
problems when logging and non-logging file systems are intermixed,
with one being the root file system.
- For logging, do not flush metadata on an inode-at-a-time basis if the sync
has been requested by ioflush. Previously, we could try hundreds of log
sync operations a second due to inode update activity, causing the syncer
to fall behind and metadata updates to be serialized across the entire
file system. Instead, burst out metadata and log flushes at a minimum
interval of every 10 seconds on an active file system (happens more often
if the log becomes full). Note this does not change the operation of
fsync() etc.
- With the flush issue fixed, re-enable concurrent metadata updates in
vfs_wapbl.c.

Simplify the mount locking. Remove all the crud to deal with recursion on
the mount lock, and crud to deal with unmount as another weirdo lock.
Hopefully this will once and for all fix the deadlocks with this. With this
commit there are two locks on each mount:
- krwlock_t mnt_unmounting. This is used to prevent unmount across critical
sections like getnewvnode(). It's only ever read locked with rw_tryenter(),
and is only ever write locked in dounmount(). A write hold can't be taken
on this lock if the current LWP could hold a vnode lock.
- kmutex_t mnt_updating. This is taken by threads updating the mount, for
example when going r/o -> r/w, and is only present to serialize updates.
In order to take this lock, a read hold must first be taken on
mnt_unmounting, and the two need to be held across the operation.
One effect of this change: previously if an unmount failed, we would make a
half hearted attempt to back out of it gracefully, but that was unlikely to
work in a lot of cases. Now while an unmount that will be aborted is in
progress, new file operations within the mount will fail instead of being
delayed. That is unlikely to be a problem though, because if the admin
requests unmount of a file system then s(he) has made a decision to deny
access to the resource.
The previous fix worked, but it opened a window where mounts could have
disappeared from mountlist while the caller was traversing it using
vfs_trybusy(). Fix that.
The symptom was that sometimes file systems would occasionally not appear
in output from 'df' or 'mount' if the system was busy. Resolution:
- Make mount locks work somewhat like vm_map locks.
- vfs_trybusy() now only fails if the mount is gone, or if someone is
unmounting the file system. Simple contention on mnt_lock doesn't
cause it to fail.
- vfs_busy() will wait even if the file system is being unmounted.
we no longer need to guard against access from hardware interrupt handlers.
Additionally, if cloning a process with CLONE_SIGHAND, arrange to have the
child process share the parent's lock so that signal state may be kept in
sync. Partially addresses PR kern/37437.
