  Modified files:
    sys/conf             files 
    sys/kern             kern_descrip.c 
    sys/sys              file.h 
  Added files:
    sys/kern             kern_fp.c 
  Log:
  Augment falloc() to support thread-only file pointers (with no integer file
  descriptor or process).
  
  Add new generic 'easy to use' fp_*() kernel functions which operate on file
  pointers.  This will greatly ease in-kernel functions which must open,
  perform I/O, and close files.
  
  Adopted from: other kernel sources and Kip Macy's checkpoint code.
