cvs commit: src/sys/kern uipc_mbuf.c src/sys/sys mbuf.h

[Mike Silbersack]

I took the "goal" parameter back out.  The more I thought about it, I
realized that it would only lead to confusion wrt the semantics of what
would be considered a failure.  Additionally, the host chain is unharmed
if memory allocation fails; this allows m_defrag to be called on critical
chains during a time of low memory without the concern of the chain being
lost.  Also, thanks to Bosko's patch to m_dup_pkthdr, I use m_getcl when
needed.

I'm going to beef up MBUF_FRAG_TEST so it can create chains
busdma_load_mbuf cannot coalesce, then I'm going to go hunting for deviant
network drivers.
