to perform an ownership test in revoke(). This is also required for
MAC hooks so that the vnode lock is held during a call to the MAC
framework. Release the lock before calling VOP_REVOKE().

- Collected i486 identification codes in one place like
586 and 686.
- Merged two cases (0x470 and 0x490) for `Enhanced Am486DX4
Write-Back.'
- Replaced `unknown' into `Unknown'.

buffers before reading the memory. Arguably, the failure modes here
are poor, but we can now read >2k EAs. Also, update the copyrights
and licenses while I'm here.
Note that getextattr has not yet been updated to dynamically allocate
a read buffer, although that can now be done.

o Modify the system call syntax for extattr_{get,set}_{fd,file}() so
as not to use the scatter gather API (which appeared not to be used
by any consumers, and be less portable), rather, accepts 'data'
and 'nbytes' in the style of other simple read/write interfaces.
This changes the API and ABI.
o Modify system call semantics so that extattr_get_{fd,file}() return
a size_t. When performing a read, the number of bytes read will
be returned, unless the data pointer is NULL, in which case the
number of bytes of data are returned. This changes the API only.
o Modify the VOP_GETEXTATTR() vnode operation to accept a *size_t
argument so as to return the size, if desirable. If set to NULL,
the size will not be returned.
o Update various filesystems (pseodofs, ufs) to DTRT.
These changes should make extended attributes more useful and more
portable. More commits to rebuild the system call files, as well
as update userland utilities to follow.

o Call bus_generic_setup_intr and check its return value. Don't setup
func until we successfully get the interrupt from our parent.
o Add comments about some maybe questionable stuff so I can check later
to make sure that it really is that way.
o Don't allow INTR_TYPE_FAST. Since we are sharing the interrupt between
CSC and the functions, they can't be FAST because fast interrupts can't
be shared.
o Add the same workaround for resume that we have in OLDCARD.
o Also, return the error from bus_generic_resume rather than ignoring it.
all facilities that previously relied on /proc have been rewritten
to use ptrace(). procfs has presented a substantial security
hazard for years, with several user->root compromises in the last
few years. Procfs will continue to be available but will require
administrator intervention to use.

that contains a space, so we need to eat two words in between RocketPortX
and the number of ports on the board.
of an alternate signal stack for handling signals. Let the kernel
send signals on the stack of the current thread and teach the threads
signal handler how to deliver signals to the current thread if it
needs to. Also, always store a threads context as a jmp_buf. Eventually
this will change to be a ucontext_t or mcontext_t.
Other small nits. Use struct pthread * instead of pthread_t in internal
library routines. The threads code wants struct pthread *, and pthread_t
doesn't necessarily have to be the same.
