This is an odd one. This patch appears to fix a panic related to background
bitmap writes (for FFS), though neither Kirk, Ian, or I can figure out how
B_CLUSTEROK could possibly be set on a bitmap block to cause the clustering
code to improperly cluster with a buffer undergoing a background write.
In anycase, the clustering code is very fragile and this patch helps with
that, as well as possibly fixing a bug Andre was having.

All calls to mtx_init() for mutexes that recurse must now include
the MTX_RECURSE bit in the flag argument variable. This change is in
preparation for an upcoming (further) mutex API cleanup.
The witness code will call panic() if a lock is found to recurse but
the MTX_RECURSE bit was not set during the lock's initialization.
The old MTX_RECURSE "state" bit (in mtx_lock) has been renamed to
MTX_RECURSED, which is more appropriate given its meaning.
The following locks have been made "recursive," thus far:
eventhandler, Giant, callout, sched_lock, possibly some others declared
in the architecture-specific code, all of the network card driver locks
in pci/, as well as some other locks in dev/ stuff that I've found to
be recursive.

active memory maps. This removes the need to change the memory
map from common to attribute every time a packet is sent/received.
This increases performance and decreases cpu load (ping times on
slow machines improve by about 1.5ms).
Move out the old common memory/attrbiute memory hack functions to a
new header file to tidy up the main code. I want to keep them available
for a while.
non-386 atomic_load_acq(). %eax is an input since its value is used in
the cmpxchg instruction, but we don't care what value it is, so setting
it to a specific value is just wasteful. Thus, it is being used without
being initialized as the warning stated, but it is ok for it to be used
because its value isn't important. Thus, we are only sort of lying when
we say it is an output only operand.
- Add "cc" to the clobber list for atomic_load_acq() since the cmpxchgl
changes ZF.
slow enough as it is, without having to constantly check that it really
is an i386 still. It was possible to compile out the conditionals for
faster cpus by leaving out 'I386_CPU', but it was not possible to
unconditionally compile for the i386. You got the runtime checking whether
you wanted it or not. This makes I386_CPU mutually exclusive with the
other cpu types, and tidies things up a little in the process.
