[Ed Maste]

These drivers have been removed from GENERIC. If you use them on
-CURRENT please add the appropriate foo_load="YES" entry to
/boot/loader.conf, or create a kernel config with the required
driver(s) added.

Log:
  Remove host binary object drivers from GENERIC

  Four drivers (hpt27xx, hptmv, hptnr, hptrr, hpt27xx) include precompiled
  binary objects; have users load them as modules if they are needed.

  Additional work (i.e., integrating devmatch) required before MFC.

        ntpd no longer by default locks its pages in memory, allowing them
        to be paged out by the kernel. Use rlimit memlock to restore
