eventtimer: Fix several races in the timer reload code

In handleevents(), lock the timer state before fetching the time for the
next event. A concurrent callout_cc_add() call might be changing the
next event time, and the race can cause handleevents() to program an
out-of-date time, causing the callout to run later (by an unbounded
period, up to the idle hardclock period of 1s) than requested.

In cpu_idleclock(), call getnextcpuevent() with the timer state mutex
held, for similar reasons. In particular, cpu_idleclock() runs with
interrupts enabled, so an untimely timer interrupt can result in a stale
next event time being programmed. Further, an interrupt can cause
cpu_idleclock() to use a stale value for "now".

In cpu_activeclock(), disable interrupts before loading "now", so as to
avoid going backwards in time when calling handleevents(). It's ok to
leave interrupts enabled when checking "state->idle", since the race at
worst will cause handleevents() to be called unnecessarily. But use an
atomic load to indicate that the test is racy.

Create a new macro for static DPCPU data.

On arm64 (and possible other architectures) we are unable to use static
DPCPU data in kernel modules. This is because the compiler will generate
PC-relative accesses, however the runtime-linker expects to be able to
relocate these.

In preparation to fix this create two macros depending on if the data is
global or static.

stop and restart kernel event timers in the suspend / resume cycle

I have a system that is very unstable after resuming from suspend-to-RAM
but only if HPET is used as the event timer. The theory is that SMM
code / firmware could be enabling HPET for its own uses and unexpected
interrupts cause a trouble for it. Originally I wanted to solve the
problem in hpet_suspend() method, but that was insufficient as the event
timer could get reprogrammed again.

So, it's better, for my case and in general, to stop the event timer(s)
before entering the hardware suspend.

sys/kern: adoption of SPDX licensing ID tags.

Mainly focus on files that use BSD 2-Clause license, however the tool I
was using misidentified many licenses so this was mostly a manual - error
prone - task.

The Software Package Data Exchange (SPDX) group provides a specification
to make it easier for automated tools to detect and summarize well known
opensource licenses. We are gradually adopting the specification, noting
that the tags are considered only advisory and do not, in any way,
superceed or replace the license texts.

Remove cpu_deepest_sleep variable.

On Core2 and older Intel CPUs, where TSC stops in C2, system does not
allow C2 entrance if timecounter hardware is TSC. This is done by
tc_windup() which tests for TC_FLAGS_C2STOP flag of the new
timecounter and increases cpu_disable_c2_sleep if flag is set. Right
now init_TSC_tc() only sets the flag if cpu_deepest_sleep >= 2, but
TSC is initialized too early for this variable to be set by
acpi_cpu.c.

There is no reason to require that ACPI reported C2 and deeper states
to set TC_FLAGS_C2STOP, so remove cpu_deepest_sleep test from
init_TSC_tc() condition. And since this is the only use of the
variable, remove it at all.

Fix for race leading to endless timer interrupts related to
configtimer().

During normal operation "state->nextcallopt" will always be less than
or equal to "state->nextcall" and checking only "state->nextcallopt"
before calling "callout_process()" is sufficient. However when
"configtimer()" is called a race might happen requiring both of these
binary times to be checked.

Short description of race:

1) A configtimer() call will reset both "state->nextcall" and
"state->nextcallopt" to the same binary time.

2) If a "callout_reset()" call happens between "configtimer()" and the
next "callout_process()" call, "state->nextcallopt" will get updated
and "state->nextcall" will remain at the current time. Refer to logic
inside cpu_new_callout().

3) getnextcpuevent() only respects "state->nextcall" and returns this
value over and over again, even if it is in the past, until "now >=
state->nextcallopt" becomes true. Then these two time variables are
corrected by a "callout_process()" call and the situation goes back to
normal.

The problem manifests itself in different ways. The common factor is
the timer process(es) consume all CPU on one or more CPU cores for a
long time, blocking other kernel processes from getting execution
time. This can be seen by very high interrupt counts as displayed by
"vmstat -i | grep timer" right after boot.

When EARLY_AP_STARTUP was enabled in r310177 the likelyhood of hitting
this bug apparently increased.

Example output from "vmstat -i" before patch:
cpu0:timer 7591 69
cpu9:timer 39031773 358089
cpu4:timer 9359 85
cpu3:timer 9100 83
cpu2:timer 9620 88

Example output from "vmstat -i" after patch:
cpu0:timer 4242 34
cpu6:timer 5531 44
cpu3:timer 6450 52
cpu1:timer 4545 36
cpu9:timer 7153 58

Before the patch cpu9 in the example above, was spinning in a loop in
order to reach 39 million interrupts just a few seconds after
bootup. After the patch the timer interrupt counts are more or less
consistent.

Add an EARLY_AP_STARTUP option to start APs earlier during boot.

Currently, Application Processors (non-boot CPUs) are started by
MD code at SI_SUB_CPU, but they are kept waiting in a "pen" until
SI_SUB_SMP at which point they are released to run kernel threads.
SI_SUB_SMP is one of the last SYSINIT levels, so APs don't enter
the scheduler and start running threads until fairly late in the
boot.

This change moves SI_SUB_SMP up to just before software interrupt
threads are created allowing the APs to start executing kernel
threads much sooner (before any devices are probed). This allows
several initialization routines that need to perform initialization
on all CPUs to now perform that initialization in one step rather
than having to defer the AP initialization to a second SYSINIT run
at SI_SUB_SMP. It also permits all CPUs to be available for
handling interrupts before any devices are probed.

This last feature fixes a problem on with interrupt vector exhaustion.
Specifically, in the old model all device interrupts were routed
onto the boot CPU during boot. Later after the APs were released at
SI_SUB_SMP, interrupts were redistributed across all CPUs.

However, several drivers for multiqueue hardware allocate N interrupts
per CPU in the system. In a system with many CPUs, just a few drivers
doing this could exhaust the available pool of interrupt vectors on
the boot CPU as each driver was allocating N * mp_ncpu vectors on the
boot CPU. Now, drivers will allocate interrupts on their desired CPUs
during boot meaning that only N interrupts are allocated from the boot
CPU instead of N * mp_ncpu.

Some other bits of code can also be simplified as smp_started is
now true much earlier and will now always be true for these bits of
code. This removes the need to treat the single-CPU boot environment
as a special case.

As a transition aid, the new behavior is available under a new kernel
option (EARLY_AP_STARTUP). This will allow the option to be turned off
if need be during initial testing. I plan to enable this on x86 by
default in a followup commit in the next few days and to have all
platforms moved over before 11.0. Once the transition is complete,
the option will be removed along with the !EARLY_AP_STARTUP code.

These changes have only been tested on x86. Other platform maintainers
are encouraged to port their architectures over as well. The main
things to check for are any uses of smp_started in MD code that can be
simplified and SI_SUB_SMP SYSINITs in MD code that can be removed in
the EARLY_AP_STARTUP case (e.g. the interrupt shuffling).
