If a thread is holding mutex when doing cv_destroy, it might end up waiting a
thread in cv_wait. The waiter would wake up trying to aquire the same mutex
and cause deadlock.
We solve this by move the mutex_enter to the bottom of cv_wait, so that
the waiter will release the cv first, allowing cv_destroy to succeed and have
a chance to free the mutex.
This would create race condition on the cv_mutex. We use xchg to set and check
it to ensure we won't be harmed by the race. This would result in the cv_mutex
debugging becomes best-effort.
Also, the change reveals a race, which was unlikely before, where we call
mutex_destroy while test threads are still holding the mutex. We use
kthread_stop to make sure the threads are exit before mutex_destroy.

This change introduces no functional changes to the memory management
interfaces. It only restructures the existing codes by separating the
kmem, vmem, and kmem cache implementations in the separate source and
header files.
Splitting this functionality in to separate files required the addition
of spl_vmem_{init,fini}() and spl_kmem_cache_{initi,fini}() functions.
Additionally, several minor changes to the #include's were required to
accommodate the removal of extraneous header from kmem.h.
But again, while large this patch introduces no functional changes.

Provide spl_kthread_create() as a wrapper to the kernel's kthread_create()
to provide pre-3.13 semantics. Re-try if the call is interrupted or if it
would have returned -ENOMEM. Otherwise return NULL.

The preferred kernel interface for creating threads has been
kthread_create() for a long time now. However, several of the
SPLAT tests still use the legacy kernel_thread() function which
has finally been dropped (mostly).
Update the condvar and rwlock SPLAT tests to use the modern
interface. Frankly this is something we should have done a
long time ago.

Restructure the the SPLAT headers such that each test only
includes the minimal set of headers it requires.

Long ago I added support to the spl for condition variable names
because I thought they might be needed. It turns out they aren't.
In fact the official Solaris cv_init(9F) man page discourages
their use in the kernel.
cv_init(9F)
Parameters
name - Descriptive string. This is obsolete and should be
NULL. (Non-NULL strings are legal, but they're a
waste of kernel memory.)
Therefore, I'm removing them from the spl to reclaim this memory
and adding an ASSERT() to ensure no new consumers are added which
make use of the name.

Updated AUTHORS, COPYING, DISCLAIMER, and INSTALL files. Added
standardized headers to all source file to clearly indicate the
copyright, license, and to give credit where credit is due.
- Proper ioctl() 32/64-bit binary compatibility. We need to ensure the
ioctl data itself is always packed the same for 32/64-bit binaries.
Additionally, the correct thing to do is encode this size in bytes
as part of the command using _IOC_SIZE().
- Minor formatting changes to respect the 80 character limit.
- Move all SPLAT_SUBSYSTEM_* defines in to splat-ctl.h.
- Increase SPLAT_SUBSYSTEM_UNKNOWN because we were getting close
to accidentally using it for a real registered subsystem.
