into an interruptable sleep and we increment a sleep count, we make sure
that we are the thread that will decrement the count when we wakeup.
Otherwise, what happens is that if we get interrupted (signal) and we
have to wake up, but before we get our mutex, some thread that wants
to wake us up detects that the count is non-zero and so enters wakeup_one(),
but there's nothing on the sleep queue and so we don't get woken up. The
thread will still decrement the sleep count, which is bad because we will
also decrement it again later (as we got interrupted) and are already off
the sleep queue.

acl_posix1e_mode_to_entry() Build ACL entry from mode/uid/gid
acl_posix1e_perms_to_mode() Generate file mode from ACL

These functions allow a file system to rely on central ACL evaluation
and syntax checking, as well as providing useful utilities to

to return via VOP_GETATTR(), and to support file systems that split
their ACL information over their existing inode storage (mode, uid,
gid) and extended ACL into extended attributes (additional users,

An initial tidyup of the mount() syscall and VFS mount code.
This code replaces the earlier work done by jlemon in an attempt to
make linux_mount() work.
* the guts of the mount work has been moved into vfs_mount().
* move `type', `path' and `flags' from being userland variables into being
kernel variables in vfs_mount(). `data' remains a pointer into
userspace.
* Attempt to verify the `type' and `path' strings passed to vfs_mount()
aren't too long.
* rework mount() and linux_mount() to take the userland parameters
(besides data, as mentioned) and pass kernel variables to vfs_mount().
(linux_mount() already did this, I've just tidied it up a little more.)
* remove the copyin*() stuff for `path'. `data' still requires copyin*()
since its a pointer into userland.
* set `mount->mnt_statf_mntonname' in vfs_mount() rather than in each
filesystem. This variable is generally initialised with `path', and
each filesystem can override it if they want to.
* NOTE: f_mntonname is intiailised with "/" in the case of a root mount.
`rootvnode' pointer, but vfs_syscalls.c's checkdirs() assumed that
it did. This bug reliably caused a panic at reboot time if any
filesystem had been mounted directly over /.
The checkdirs() function is called at mount time to find any process
fd_cdir or fd_rdir pointers referencing the covered mountpoint
vnode. It transfers these to point at the root of the new filesystem.
However, this process was not reversed at unmount time, so processes
with a cwd/root at a mount point would unexpectedly lose their
cwd/root following a mount-unmount cycle at that mountpoint.
This change should fix both of the above issues. Start_init() now
holds an extra vnode reference corresponding to `rootvnode', and
dounmount() releases this reference when the root filesystem is
unmounted just before reboot. Dounmount() now undoes the actions
taken by checkdirs() at mount time; any process cdir/rdir pointers
that reference the root vnode of the unmounted filesystem are
transferred to the now-uncovered vnode.
