in the kernel.
Use the new delete_area_etc() call for other needs.

delete_area() now only allows to delete areas you have created
yourself before from userland, again.
The kernel's delete_area() still allows everything, though.

delete. Added a comment how the security should be improved by adding another
restriction.
Also mentioned that it's probably a bad idea that vm_delete_region() will
not wait until the region has been freed, but just "mark" it as to be freed.

that will call the internal vm_*() calls. This will make it easier to just
drop in another VM.
Also (partially - Ingo was faster) introduced the new syscall naming scheme
_kern_ & _user_ prefixes to them into the system namespace, and no longer
clobber the application namespace.
Removed the now unused user_vm_create_anonymous_region() call.

to work at all: recurse_directory() always returned failure, no matter what opendir()
returned (one semicolon too much), create_module() allocated only 4 bytes for
the module - sizeof(module) referred to the variable, not the structure name...
(the unfortunate consequences of the naming scheme I otherwise like very much -
it "just" took me 3 hours to hunt both bugs down).
Added some TRACE() and ASSERT()s.
Added a new debugger command "modules".

(except for the first 4 bytes, because that's the pointer to the next buffer
in the free list).

* Added {Add,Clear}Flags() which are more comfortable than SetFlags() in
most cases.
* On construction the `busy' and `descendant busy' flags are set.

generates the jobs needed to transform the former to the state of the
latter. Currently only the jobs for deleting partitions and resizing
and moving existing ones are generated. Resizing and moving was the
hard part, though, the rest should be much easier. Completely untested
yet.

now no longer set in the loop, the total_length calculation should now be correct.
The CBUF_FLAG_CHAIN_TAIL is now set for the lastBuffer instead of buffer.
Removed some superfluous lines in cbuf_get_ptr(), and cbuf_ones_cksum16().
Fixed the buffer->length calculation in cbuf_truncate_tail() and added some
comments about the correctness of the code - should be investigated and fixed.

to the module interfaces. So the disk system will be informed, when a
shadow partition has changed and it is allowed to do necessary
adjustions (e.g. adjusting the cookie, the parameters, or on
partitioning system initialization even creating special child
partitions (apple partitioning system)).
* Added `int32 *index' parameter to ValidateCreateChild(). So the
partitioning system can report at which index the new child shall be
inserted.

modification functions. Don't know why I didn't right from the start.
* Implemented _kern_resize_partition().

PrettyName() of the responsible disk system.
* Added change counter support and changes tracking.
* Added UninitializeContents().

* Removed the disk_system_id parameter where superfluous.
* Got rid of the `child' variants of the _kern_{supports,validate}_*()
syscalls for moving and resizing. Reimplemented the real ones to do the
the right thing, i.e. they check all concerned disk systems now.
* Added _kern_supports_setting[_content]_parameters().
