explanations into a new file "refuse.README". Some users are simply
copying these files and expecting them to work -- without even
reading them. I don't want to spend any more time closing bogus
PRs from that.
Also correct an error or two in the patterns.
up cam_fill_ctio usage to passed atio flags. Clear periph_priv area
of new ctio so if the kernel is dumb enough to look at them (this is
a SECURITY hole) the panic will be obvious instead of subtle.
and remove sysctl oids at will during runtime - they don't rely on
linker sets. Also, the node oids can be referenced by more than
one kernel user, which means that it's possible to create partially
overlapping trees.
Add sysctl contexts to help programmers manage multiple dynamic
oids in convenient way.
Please see the manpages for detailed discussion, and example module
for typical use.
This work is based on ideas and code snippets coming from many
people, among them: Arun Sharma, Jonathan Lemon, Doug Rabson,
Brian Feldman, Kelly Yancey, Poul-Henning Kamp and others. I'd like
to specially thank Brian Feldman for detailed review and style
fixes.

NO_MODULES variable and the existence of the modules directory. The
actual location of the modules is not modified. Changes in Makefiles

The makefile contains a reference to /sys/dev/ppbus. What really should
be done is copy the header files to /usr/include/sys/dev/ppbus.

On a K6-2/450 with fairly fast SCSI disks, building+installing src/share/
takes 2m51.3s, where src/share/doc/ is 1m9.9s of that.
However on a slow Alpha (233MHz) the times are 7m39.3s and 4m58.3s
respectively.
This commit allows one to speed up their build time, without not getting
any important and required changes if one used "NOSHARE".
