Add the linux 2.6.x stuff (not used by default!):
- TLS - complete
- pid/tid mangling - complete
- thread area - complete
- futexes - complete with issues
- clone() extension - complete with some possible minor issues
- mq*/timer*/clock* stuff - complete but untested and the mq* stuff is
disabled when not build as part of the kernel with native FreeBSD mq*
support (module support for this will come later)

Tested with:
- linux-firefox - works, tested
- linux-opera - works, tested
- linux-realplay - doesnt work, issue with futexes
- linux-skype - doesnt work, issue with futexes
- linux-rt2-demo - works, tested
- linux-acroread - doesnt work, unknown reason (coredump) and sometimes
issue with futexes
- various unix utilities in linux-base-gentoo3 and linux-base-fc4:
everything tried worked

On amd64 not everything is supported like on i386, the catchup is planned for
later when the remaining bugs in the new functions are fixed.

To test this new stuff, you have to run
sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.6.16
to switch back use
sysctl compat.linux.osrelease=2.4.2

Don't switch while running a linux program, strange things may or may not
happen.

Enhance the Linux emulation layer to make MegaRAID SAS managements tool happy.
Add back in a scheme to emulate old type major/minor numbers via hooks into
stat, linprocfs to return major/minors that Linux app's expect. Currently
only /dev/null is always registered. Drivers can register via the Linux
type shim similar to the ioctl shim but by using
linux_device_register_handler/linux_device_unregister_handler functions.
The structure is:

struct linux_device_handler {
char *bsd_driver_name;
char *linux_driver_name;
char *bsd_device_name;
char *linux_device_name;
int linux_major;
int linux_minor;
int linux_char_device;
};

Linprocfs uses this to display the major number of the driver. The
soon to be available linsysfs will use it to fill in the driver name.
Linux_stat uses it to translate the major/minor into Linux type values.

Note major numbers are dynamically assigned via passing in a -1 for
the major number so we don't need to keep track of them.

This is somewhat needed due to us switching to our devfs. MegaCli
will not run until I add in the linsysfs and mfi Linux compat changes.

VOP_GETATTR() wants the vnode passed to it to be locked. Instead
of adding the code to lock and unlock the vnodes and taking care
to avoid deadlock, simplify linux_emul_convpath() by comparing the
vnode pointers directly instead of comparing their va_fsid and
va_fileid attributes. This allows the removal of the calls to
VOP_GETATTR().

Add bounds checking to stackgap_alloc. Previously it was possible
to construct a path that was long enough (ie longer than
SPARE_USRSPACE bytes) and trash the stack.

Note that SPARE_USRSPACE is much smaller than MAXPATHLEN so that
the Linuxulator will now return ENAMETOOLONG even if the path
is smaller than MAXPATHLEN.
