device additions/removals can be monitored.
* Minor cleanup.

the methods IsFile() and GetFilePath() to BDiskDevice, and
BDiskDeviceRoster::GetFileDeviceForPath().
* Added new syscalls to implement this functionality.
* Added new flag B_DISK_DEVICE_IS_FILE.
* Fixed wrong operator precedence assumption in the BDiskDevice class at
several places.
* Minor cleanup.

various system information.
* Implemented retrieving some VM stats via this call.
* The VM now maintains a page fault counter, and sets system_info::page_faults
accordingly.
* Added a (pretty simple) "vmstat" command line app.
* Minor cleanup.

unscheduled was incorrect.
* Introduced _kern_analyze_scheduling() syscall. It requires scheduler
kernel tracing to be enabled. It uses the tracing entries for a given
period of time to do a similar analysis the "scheduler" debugger
command does (i.e. number of runs, run time, latencies, preemption
times) for each thread. Additionally the analysis includes for each
thread how long the thread waited on each locking primitive in total.
* Added kernel tracing for the creation of semaphores and initialization
of condition variables, mutexes, and rw locks. The enabling macro is
SCHEDULING_ANALYSIS_TRACING. The only purpose is to provide
_kern_analyze_scheduling() with more info on the locking primitives
(the name in particular).

specifying the protection of each page (4 bits per page).
* Added no-op implementation of posix_madvise().
* Replaced a few "addr_t size" parameters by "size_t size".

by myself:
* renamed xsi_do_undo() to xsi_sem_undo() (there is more to XSI than sems).
* Fixed coding style issues in sys/sem.h and xsi_sem.cpp.
* Added _kern_*() syscall prototypes to syscalls.h.
* Added a TODO in xsi_sem.cpp and xsi_semaphore.h about moving union semun to
a shared header.
* Made the team::xsi_sem_undo_requests int32 - due to padding, it would have
needed 4 bytes anyway; please always use specific types over int/short/long.
* xsi_sem_undo() now checks if it needs to do anything - the calls in team.cpp
no longer needs to do this.

a flattened argument/environment buffer now. This simplifies the work
for the kernel a bit, since it can just copy the buffer and check
whether it looks OK instead of messing around with individual strings.
The runtime loader also gets a flattened array.
* Set the maximum size of the arguments/environment buffer to 128 KB.
When more arguments are passed, we fail with a proper error code
(instead of just truncating the arguments as before).
* On exec*() the first argument was silently replaced by the given path
name, which is not correct.

vm_page_write_modified_pages(), save that it only writes pages in the
given range.
* Added vm_page_schedule_write_page_range() which schedules all modified
pages in the given cache's range for writing by the page writer.
* Added _kern_sync_memory() syscall and the msync() POSIX function.

to contain headers shared by kernel and userland (mainly libroot).
* Moved quite a few private kernel headers to the new location. Split
several kernel headers into a shared part and one that is still kernel
private. Adjusted all affected Jamfiles and source in the standard x86
build accordingly. The build for other architectures and for test code
may be broken.
* Quite a bit of userland code still includes private kernel headers.
Mostly those are <util/*> headers. The ones that aren't strictly
kernel-only should be moved to some other place (maybe
headers/private/shared/util).
