    kernel - Enhance the sniff code, refactor interrupt disablement for IPIs
    
    * Add kern.sniff_enable, default to 1.  Allows the sysop to disable the
      feature if desired.
    
    * Add kern.sniff_target, allows sniff IPIs to be targetted to all cpus
      (-1), or to a particular cpu (0...N).  This feature allows the sysop
      to test IPI delivery to particular CPUs (typically monitoring with
      systat -pv 0.1) to determine that delivery is working properly.
    
    * Bring in some additional AMD-specific setup from FreeBSD, beginnings
      of support for the APIC Extended space.  For now just make sure the
      extended entries are masked.
    
    * Change interrupt disablement expectations.  The caller of apic_ipi(),
      selected_apic_ipi(), and related macros is now required to hard-disable
      interrupts rather than these functions doing so.  This allows the caller
      to run certain operational sequences atomically.
    
    * Use the TSC to detect IPI send stalls instead of a hard-coded loop count.
    
    * Also set the APIC_LEVEL_ASSERT bit when issuing a directed IPI, though
      the spec says this is unnecessary.  Do it anyway.
    
    * Remove unnecessary critical section in selected_apic_ipi().  We are in
      a hard-disablement and in particular we do not want to accidently trigger
      a splz() due to the crit_exit() while in the hard-disablement.
    
    * Enhance the IPI stall detection and recovery code.  Provide more
      inforamtion.  Also enable the LOOPMASK_IN debugging tracker by default.
    
    * Add a testing feature to machdep.all_but_self_ipi_enable.  By setting
      this to 2, we force the smp_invltlb() to always use the ALL_BUT_SELF IPI.
      For testing only.
