Introduce disc_mtx to protect the global softc list in if_disc.

Since there are two destroy paths for if_disc interfaces --
module unload and cloan interface destroy, create a new utility
function disc_destroy(), which is callded on a softc after it
has been removed from the global softc list; the cloaner and
module unload entry paths will both remove it before calling
disc_destroy().

o while we're sweeping the drivers, use u_int32_t uniformly when

sizeof(int) was 4)

mbufs have been eliminated; this may better be moved to the bpf

Replace the if_name and if_unit members of struct ifnet with new members
if_xname, if_dname, and if_dunit. if_xname is the name of the interface
and if_dname/unit are the driver name and instance.

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
device creation and configuration symantics.

Locking for updates to routing table entries. Each rtentry gets a mutex
that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.

Locking for updates to routing table entries. Each rtentry gets a mutex
that covers updates to the contents. Note this is separate from holding
a reference and/or locking the routing table itself.

Other/related changes:

o rtredirect loses the final parameter by which an rtentry reference
may be returned; this was never used and added unwarranted complexity
for locking.
o minor style cleanups to routing code (e.g. ansi-fy function decls)
o remove the logic to bump the refcnt on the parent of cloned routes,
we assume the parent will remain as long as the clone; doing this avoids
a circularity in locking during delete
o convert some timeouts to MPSAFE callouts

Notes:

1. rt_mtx in struct rtentry is guarded by #ifdef _KERNEL as user-level
applications cannot/do-no know about mutex's. Doing this requires
that the mutex be the last element in the structure. A better solution
is to introduce an externalized version of struct rtentry but this is
a major task because of the intertwining of rtentry and other data
structures that are visible to user applications.
2. There are known LOR's that are expected to go away with forthcoming
work to eliminate many held references. If not these will be resolved
prior to release.
3. ATM changes are untested.

Pull post-4.4BSD change to sys/net/route.c from BSD/OS 4.2.

Have sys/net/route.c:rtrequest1(), which takes ``rt_addrinfo *''
as the argument. Pass rt_addrinfo all the way down to rtrequest1
and ifa->ifa_rtrequest. 3rd argument of ifa->ifa_rtrequest is now
``rt_addrinfo *'' instead of ``sockaddr *'' (almost noone is
using it anyways).

Benefit: the following command now works. Previously we needed
two route(8) invocations, "add" then "change".
# route add -inet6 default ::1 -ifp gif0

Remove unsafe typecast in rtrequest(), from ``rtentry *'' to
``sockaddr *''. It was introduced by 4.3BSD-Reno and never
