These changes add locking. There are two locks: one for static rules and
one for dynamic rules. The associated dummynet changes are not included as
I haven't tested them yet. The locking scheme may need to be revised to
use something like sx locks; this will be revisited in a later pass.
I've been running with these changes for a week on my interior firewall,
but they are very lightly tested and need a good review and more testing.
I don't plan to commit them until they get more of each.
