type numbers in vfs attach order (modulo incomplete reuse of old
numbers after vfs LKMs are unloaded). This requires reinitializing
the sysctl tree (or at least the vfs subtree) for vfs's that support
sysctls (currently only nfs). sysctl_order() already handled
reinitialization reasonably except it checked for annulled self
references in the wrong place.
Fixed sysctls for vfs LKMs.

it in non-Lite2 code. Initialize it to -1 instead of to 0, since 0
will soon be the mount type number for the first vfs loaded.
NetBSD uses strcmp() to avoid this ugly global.
Our write protection of the kernel text on i386's doesn't actually
work in many cases:
- use of the 4MB page completely breaks it.
- CR0_WP isn't set until just before init is started, so the kernel
text is not write protected during kernel initialization.

Device-drivers receive the call through d_strategy, if they have
D_CANFREE in d_flags.
This allows flash based devices to erase the sectors and avoid
pointlessly carrying them around in compactions.

XCVR value read from the EEPROM is completely wrong. I've had one report
of a 3c900 card that returns an xcvr value of 14, which is impossible
(the manual states that all vales above 8 are reserved). If the value

Add PCI vendor ID for the 3c980-TX server adapter card, which apparently
also uses the cyclone chip. Graciously supplied Mats O Jansson

Also noted by Mats, the 10mpbs cyclone adapters should be named 3c900B,
not 3c905B. I haven't actually encountered a 10mbps only cyclone adapter
yet, nor anybody who has one, but this makes sense given the naming
scheme used for the older boomerang adapters.

all SCSI tape's, though).
- Move some startup code from MD to MI sections
- Add a 'copyout' and some copyout-related functions. These will be
obsoleted when BTX is available for the 386 and the kernel load
area becomes directly addressable.
- Add the ability load an arbitrary file as a module, associating
and arbitrary type string with it. This can be used eg. for loading
splash-screen images etc.
- Add KLD module dependancy infrastructure. We know how to look for
dependancies inside KLD modules, how to resolve these dependancies
and what to do if things go wrong. Only works for a.out at the
moment, due to lack of an MI ELF loader. Attach KLD module information
to loaded modules as metadata, but don't pass it to the kernel (it
can find it itself).
- Load a.out KLD modules on a page boundary. Only pad the a.out BSS
for the kernel, as it may want to throw symbols away. (We might want
to do this for KLD modules too.)
- Allow commands to be hidden from the '?' display, to avoid cluttering
it with things like 'echo'. Add 'echo'.
- Bring the 'prompt' command into line with the parser syntax.
- Fix the verbose 'ls'; it was using an uninitialised stack variable.
- Add a '-v' flag to 'lsmod' to have it display module metadata as well
(not terribly useful for the average user)
- Support a 'module searchpath' for required modules.
- The bootstrap file on i386 is now called 'loader' to permit the
/boot directory to use that name.
- Discard the old i386 pread() function, as it's replaced by
