to downgrade the exclusive lock to shared one when exclusive lock owner
requested shared lock. New lockmgr panics instead.
The vnode_pager_lock function requests shared lock on the vnode backing
the OBJT_VNODE, and can be called when the current thread already holds
an exlcusive lock on the vnode. For instance, it happens when handling
page fault from the VOP_WRITE() uiomove that writes to the file, with
the faulted in page fetched from the vm object backed by the same file.
We then get the situation described above.
Verify whether the vnode is already exclusively locked by the curthread
and request recursed exclusive vnode lock instead of shared, if true.

It seems we only use `lbolt' inside the VFS syncer and the TTY layer
now. Because I'm planning to replace the TTY layer next month, there's
no reason to keep `lbolt' if it's only used in a single thread inside
the kernel.
Because the syncer code wanted to wake up the syncer thread before the
timeout, it called sleepq_remove(). Because we now just use a condvar(9)
with a timeout value of `hz', we can wake it up using cv_broadcast()
without waking up any unrelated threads.

After the import of the new TTY layer, the TTY_QUOTE definition will not
be present anymore. To make sure clists will still work as expected,
introduce an internal definition called QUOTEMASK.
Maybe we can decide to remove the quote bits entirely, but we still have
to look into this. There may be drivers that still use the quote bits.

the 32bit images on amd64.
Change the semantic of the PCB_32BIT pcb flag to request the context
switch code to operate on the segment registers. Its previous meaning
of saving or restoring the %gs base offset is assigned to the new
PCB_GS32BIT flag.
FreeBSD 32bit image activator sets the PCB_32BIT flag, while Linux 32bit
emulation sets PCB_32BIT | PCB_GS32BIT.

sockets for IPv6 raw sockets: separately lock the inpcb for determining
the destination address for a connect()'d raw socket at the rip6_send()
layer, and then re-acquire the inpcb lock in the rip6_output() layer to
query other options on the socket. Previously, the global raw IP socket
lock was used, which while correct and marginally more consistent, could
add significantly to global raw IP socket lock contention.

lock the inpcb and use a local stack variable to copy to/from userspace
so that sooptcopyin()/sooptcopyout() aren't called while holding an
rwlock.
While here, fix a bug in which a failed sooptcopyin() might lead to
partially consistent ICMPv6 filters on the socket by not ignoring the
error returned by sooptcopyin().

- When a cpuset is applied to a thread, walk the cpuset to see if it is a
"full" cpuset (includes all available CPUs). If not, set a new
TDS_AFFINITY flag to indicate that this thread can't run on all CPUs.
When inheriting a cpuset from another thread during thread creation, the
new thread also inherits this flag. It is in a new ts_flags field in
td_sched rather than using one of the TDF_SCHEDx flags because fork()
clears td_flags after invoking sched_fork().
- When placing a thread on a runqueue via sched_add(), if the thread is not
pinned or bound but has the TDS_AFFINITY flag set, then invoke a new
routine (sched_pickcpu()) to pick a CPU for the thread to run on next.
sched_pickcpu() walks the cpuset and picks the CPU with the shortest
per-CPU runqueue length. Note that the reason for the TDS_AFFINITY flag
is to avoid having to walk the cpuset and examine runq lengths in the
common case.
- To avoid walking the per-CPU runqueues in sched_pickcpu(), add an array
of counters to hold the length of the per-CPU runqueues and update them
when adding and removing threads to per-CPU runqueues.
