explicitly select write locking for all use of the inpcb mutex.
Update some pcbinfo lock assertions to assert locked rather than
write-locked, although in practice almost all uses of the pcbinfo
rwlock main exclusive, and all instances of inpcb lock acquisition
are exclusive.
This change should introduce (ideally) little functional change.
However, it lays the groundwork for significantly increased
parallelism in the TCP/IP code.

have separate configuration spaces so by definition they implement
different PCI domains. Thus change psycho(4) to use PCI domains
instead of reenumerating all PCI busses so they have globally unique
bus numbers and drop support for reenumerating busses in the OFW PCI
code.
According to CVS history reenumeration was also required in order to
get some E450 to boot but given that no other open source kernel
changes the PCI bus numbers assigned by the firmware I believe the
real problem was that the old code used the bus number as the device
number for the PCI busses and unlike most of the other machines the
firmwares of the problematic ones don't use disjoint PCI bus numbers
across the host-PCI-bridges.

This avoids calling busdma in the request processing path which caused a traumatic performance degradation.

- In reset walk the children of kern_sched_stats and reset the counters
via the oid_arg1 pointer. This allows us to add arbitrary counters to
the tree and still reset them properly.
- Define a set of switch types to be passed with flags to mi_switch().
These types are named SWT_*. These types correspond to SCHED_STATS
counters and are automatically handled in this way.
- Make the new SWT_ types more specific than the older switch stats.
There are now stats for idle switches, remote idle wakeups, remote
preemption ithreads idling, etc.
- Add switch statistics for ULE's pickcpu algorithm. These stats include
how much migration there is, how often affinity was successful, how
often threads were migrated to the local cpu on wakeup, etc.

It allows to save several percents of CPU time on SMP by using UMA's

filesystem-specific vnode data to the struct vnode. Provide the
default implementation for the vop_advlock and vop_advlockasync.
Purge the locks on the vnode reclaim by using the lf_purgelocks().
The default implementation is augmented for the nfs and smbfs.
In the nfs_advlock, push the Giant inside the nfs_dolock.
Before the change, the vop_advlock and vop_advlockasync have taken the
unlocked vnode and dereferenced the fs-private inode data, racing with
with the vnode reclamation due to forced unmount. Now, the vop_getattr
under the shared vnode lock is used to obtain the inode size, and
later, in the lf_advlockasync, after locking the vnode interlock, the
VI_DOOMED flag is checked to prevent an operation on the doomed vnode.
The implementation of the lf_purgelocks() is submitted by dfr.

- reorder structures fields (XX_refs) a bit to group fields modified
same time together. According to my tests it gives up to 10%
SMP performance benefit on real workload due to reduced inter-CPU
cache trashing.
- change q_flags from long to int as long is not really needed there and
it's usage with atomics is argued by some people.
- move NGF_WORKQ flag into the separate field q_flags2 as it protected by
queue mutex instead of node writer protection used by the rest of flags.
- move nd_work queue entry to ng_queue structure to which it is more
related and make it STAILQ instead of TAILQ as now it is a classic FIFO.
- remove q_node pointer from ng_queue structure as it is not really needed.
- reimplement item queue using STAILQ instead of own equal implementation.
As soon as BT subsystem has own item queues using ng_item.el_next update
it also.
- change depth field in ng_item from uintptr_t to u_int. It was made
uintptr_t to keep ABI compatibility.

(i.e. fixed delivery) to SAPIC_DELMODE_LOWPRI. While the commit
log doesn't mention the change in behaviour, it is believed to be
deliberate. In the last 5.5 years this hasn't been a problem. Nor
do I think did it make any difference, but who knows. However, I
do know that it break SMP support for Montecito-based machines.
Switch back to fixed-CPU delivery so that SMP works again. This
gives me some time to look more closely at the problem, as well
as make sure the I-cache validation as it's implemented currently
is sufficient in SMP configurations...
