contributed to the transferable load count. This prevents any potential
problems with sched_pin() being used around calls to setrunqueue().
- Change the sched_add() load balancing algorithm to try to migrate on
wakeup. This attempts to place threads that communicate with each other
on the same CPU.
- Don't clear the idle counts in kseq_transfer(), let the cpus do that when
they call sched_add() from kseq_assign().
- Correct a few out of date comments.
- Make sure the ke_cpu field is correct when we preempt.
- Call kseq_assign() from sched_clock() to catch any assignments that were
done without IPI. Presently all assignments are done with an IPI, but I'm
trying a patch that limits that.
- Don't migrate a thread if it is still runnable in sched_add(). Previously,
this could only happen for KSE threads, but due to changes to
sched_switch() all threads went through this path.
- Remove some code that was added with preemption but is not necessary.

catch leaking into VFS without Giant.
Inch Giant a little lower in several file descriptor operations on
vnodes to cover only VFS operations that need it, rather than file
flag reading, etc.
fcntl() operations, including:
F_DUPFD dup() alias
F_GETFD retrieve close-on-exec flag
F_SETFD set close-on-exec flag
F_GETFL retrieve file descriptor flags
For the remaining fcntl() operations, do acquire Giant, especially
where we call into fo_ioctl() as a result. We're not yet ready to
push Giant into fo_ioctl(). Once we do, this can all become quite a
bit prettier.

better check for 'adjacent'. The old code assumed that if two resources
were adjacent in the linked list that they were also adjacent range wise.
This is not true when a resource manager has to manage disparate regions.
For example, the current interrupt code on i386/amd64 will instruct
irq_rman to manage two disjoint regions: 0-1 and 3-15 for the non-APIC
case. If IRQs 1 and 3 were allocated and then released, the old code
would coalesce across the 1 to 3 boundary because the resources were
adjacent in the linked list thus adding 2 to the area of resources that
irq_rman managed as a side effect. The fix adds extra checks so that
adjacent unallocated resources are only merged with the resource being
freed if the start and end values of the resources also match up. The
patch also consolidates the checks for adjacent resources being allocated.
spin-wait code to use the same spin mutex (smp_tlb_mtx) as the TLB ipi
and spin-wait code snippets so that you can't get into the situation of
one CPU doing a TLB shootdown to another CPU that is doing a lazy pmap
shootdown each of which are waiting on each other. With this change, only
one of the CPUs would do an IPI and spin-wait at a time.
the immediate awakening of proc0 (scheduler kproc, controls swapping
processes in and out). The scheduler process periodically awakens already,
so this will not result in processes not being swapped in, there will just
be more latency in between a thread being made runnable and the scheduler
waking up to swap the affected process back in.

a very modest perf improvement in some benchmarks.

* Allow uma_zone constructors and initialation functions to return either
success or error. Almost all of the ones in the tree currently return
success unconditionally, but mbuf is a notable exception: the packet
zone constructor wants to be able to fail if it cannot suballocate an
mbuf cluster, and the mbuf allocators want to be able to fail in general
in a MAC kernel if the MAC mbuf initializer fails. This fixes the
panics people are seeing when they run out of memory for mbuf clusters.
