New Revision: 212112
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/212112

Log:
  rmlock(9) two additions and one change/fix:
   - add rm_try_rlock().
   - add RM_SLEEPABLE to use sx(9) as the back-end lock in order to sleep while
     holding the write lock.
   - change rm_noreadtoken to a cpu bitmask to indicate which CPUs need to go
     through the lock/unlock in order to synchronize.  As a side effect, this
     also avoids IPI to CPUs without any readers during rm_wlock.
