Don't return "can't do it" when the user requests a state change to
the current state. This previously caused silly messages like "Can't
start <foo>: invalid argument", when in fact <foo> was already
started.
set_plex_state: don't set state for non-existent plexes.
update_plex_status: as long as we have initializing subdisks, we're
initializing.
Move the declaration of freerq() to request.h.
logrq: add support for lock events.
vinumstart: solve a problem where removing a plex from an active
volume could cause attempts to access non-existent plexes.
launch_requests: don't set a request group active until we're sure we
can launch it. This caused some hangs under unusual
circumstances.
bre: don't set XFR_BAD_SUBDISK if we're not going to use it.
build_read_request: correct recovery, which caused some hangs under
(other) unusual circumstances.
build_rq_buffer: don't set bp->b_dev if we don't have a dev.
sdio: clean up, remove obsolete code.
deallocrqg: unlock any locks the rqg may have.
bre5:
Shorten some lines.

If we're reading from a short plex, return EOF indication.
Always lock the stripe before starting a transfer. Hopefully the
current version will solve some data integrity problems that have
been reported with degraded RAID-5 plexes.

Tidy other comments.
open_drive: don't call set_drive_state if we decide to take it down.
This could help avoid some race conditions with the daemon.
init_drive: don't set the drive down, we'll let close_locked_drive do
that.
close_locked_drive: set drive state to down without calling
set_drive_state. This could help avoid some race conditions with the
daemon.
driveio: remove the function, it wasn't being used.
get_volume_label: remove volume dependencies so that we can return a
label for plexes and subdisks as well. What a kludge.
Remove declarations for freerq and free_rqg.
Remove DEBUG_RESID code.
freerq: check whether the request is holding a lock, free if so.
free_rqg: remove. It wasn't being used any more.
Change the Debugger calls to panics.
checkdiskconfig(): remove. It didn't make any sense to complain about
kernel keywords in user config files; it just made it more difficult
to convert. Now we ignore kernel keywords if we're not in kernel
mode.
get_empty_sd: initialize sectors.
free_drive: don't close if we don't have a vp. Maybe this will help
fix the problem that peter had, but I wouldn't count on it.
config_plex: If the plex is RAID-5, give it a rangelock structure.
start_config: Reset current drive, plex and volume so that a new
'create' command doesn't get long-dead defaults.
struct rqelement, enum rqinfo_type, struct rqinfo, union rqinfou: add
lock requests.
Add declarations for freerq and unlockrange. Since they include
request structures, they can't go in vinumext.h
stuff: unregister_methods() is horribly broken. The idea, if I'm not mistaken,
is that the refcount on a method is decremented, and only when it reaches
zero is the method freed. However desc->method is set to NULL unconditionally
regardless of the refcount, which means the method pointer is trashed the
first time the method is deallocated. The obvious detrimental effect is
that memory is leaked. The not so obvious effect is that when you call
unregister_method() the second time on the same method, you get a NULL
pointer dereference and a panic.
Now I can successfully unload network device drivers and the miibus module
without crashing the system.
*sigh*
A complete rewrite by dillon and myself to separate
the implementation of behaviors that effect the vm_map_entry
from those that effect the vm_object.
A result of this change is that madvise(..., MADV_FREE);
is much cheaper.
operations. This allows a device driver better insight into
what is going on that the current:
proc1: open /dev/foo R/O
devsw->open( R/O, proc1 )
proc2: open /dev/foo R/W
devsw->open( R/W, proc2 )
proc2: close
/* nothing, but device is
really only R/O open */
proc1: close
devsw->close( R/O, proc1 )
