I've been so busy hacking on utmpx the last couple of days, out of
reflex, I committed it to the wrong source tree. Note to myself: don't
hack on FreeBSD while watching TV at the same time.

While the name is pretentious, a good explanation of its targets is
reported in this 17 months old presentation e-mail:

In order to implement it, the sq_type in sleepqueues is mandatory and not
only compiled along with INVARIANTS option. Additively, a new sleepqueue
function, sleepq_type() is added, returning the type of the sleepqueue
linked to a wchan.
Three new sysctls are added in order to configure the thread:
debug.deadlkres.slptime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.blktime_threshold
debug.deadlkres.sleepfreq
rappresenting the thresholds for sleep and block time that will lead to
a deadlock matching (when exceeded), while the sleepfreq rappresents the
number of seconds between 2 consecutive thread runnings.
In order to enable the deadlock resolver thread recompile your kernel
with the option DEADLKRES.

Unfortunately there are two slight problems with that:
- Yacc and lex might generate code that generates warnings because of
this. Require yacc and lex to be rebuilt during bootstrap. I'm not
incrementing __FreeBSD_version here, because I assume someone else
will do this eventually.
- When running `make buildkernel', it uses share/mk from the source
treeo to build aicasm. Because aicasm also depends on lex, this would
break. Lower WARNS to 5 for now. We should just increment it to 6
again somewhere in the very far future.
wlan(4) interfaces. vlan(4) interfaces are listed via a new 'vlans_<IF>'
variable. If a vlan interface is a number, then that number is treated as
the vlan tag for the interface and the interface will be named '<IF>.<tag>'.
Otherwise, the vlan tag must be provided via a vlan parameter in a
'create_args_<vlan>' variable.
While I'm here, fix a few nits in rc.conf(5) and mention create_args_<IF> in
the description of cloned_interfaces.

it mentioned only VT6122. While I'm here remove the mention of
VT3119 which seems to be VIA's internal model name and VT3119
wouldn't be available to end users.

This tunable allows one to enable (1) or disable (0) gestures like tap
and tap-hold on Synaptics TouchPad when the Extended mode isn't enabled
(ie. "hw.psm.synaptics_support" not set).
By default, the value is -1 in order to keep the current behaviour of
not enabling/disabling gestures explicitly.

Add some example xterm*-clear entries to the termcap files to make
it easier for people to enable that behavior.
Document the examples in the man page to make them easier to find.
sxlock, via the sx_{s, x}lock_sig() interface, or plain lockmgr), will
leave the waiters flag on forcing the owner to do a wakeup even when if
the waiter queue is empty.
That operation may lead to a deadlock in the case of doing a fake wakeup
on the "preferred" (based on the wakeup algorithm) queue while the other
queue has real waiters on it, because nobody is going to wakeup the 2nd
queue waiters and they will sleep indefinitively.
A similar bug, is present, for lockmgr in the case the waiters are
sleeping with LK_SLEEPFAIL on. In this case, even if the waiters queue
is not empty, the waiters won't progress after being awake but they will
just fail, still not taking care of the 2nd queue waiters (as instead the
lock owned doing the wakeup would expect).
In order to fix this bug in a cheap way (without adding too much locking
and complicating too much the semantic) add a sleepqueue interface which
does report the actual number of waiters on a specified queue of a
waitchannel (sleepq_sleepcnt()) and use it in order to determine if the
exclusive waiters (or shared waiters) are actually present on the lockmgr
(or sx) before to give them precedence in the wakeup algorithm.
This fix alone, however doesn't solve the LK_SLEEPFAIL bug. In order to
cope with it, add the tracking of how many exclusive LK_SLEEPFAIL waiters
a lockmgr has and if all the waiters on the exclusive waiters queue are
LK_SLEEPFAIL just wake both queues.
The sleepq_sleepcnt() introduction and ABI breakage require
__FreeBSD_version bumping.

It turns out these entries do make Terminal.app behave a little better.
According to Thomas Dickey, Terminal.app should use TERM=nsterm anyway,
but we don't support this yet. Already having an improved termcap entry
helps, so I am going to MFC this change after all.
