Adding a writev syscall wrapper is needed due to Linux family of write
syscalls doesn't distinguish between in kernel blocking operations
and always returns EAGAIN while FreeBSD can return ENOBUFS.

Perhaps, this does not makes much sense as destroyng %rcx declared by
the x86_64 Linux syscall ABI. However,:
a) if we get a signal while we are in the kernel, we should restore
tf_rcx when preparing machine context for signal handlers.
b) the Linux world is strange, someone can depend on %rcx value
after syscall, something like go.

I agree, it would be great to avoid PCB_FULL_IRET, however we should
follow Linux system call ABI.

The SPDX folks have obsoleted the BSD-2-Clause-FreeBSD identifier. Catch
up to that fact and revert to their recommended match of BSD-2-Clause.

As of version 2.6.0 of the Linux kernel, dev_t is a 32-bit unsigned integer
on all platforms. Prior the 2.6 kernel dev_t type was an unsigned short.
However, since the firs commit of the Linuxulator, mknod syscall get int dev
argument.
Also, there is some confusion here, while the kernel declares a dev_t type
as a 32-bit sized, the user-space dev_t type can be size of 64 bits, e.g.,
in the Glibc library.
To avoid confusion and to help porting of the Linuxulator to other platforms
use explicit l_dev_t for dev argument of mknod syscalls.
Export default MINSIGSTKSZ value for the x86 until we do not preserve AVX
registers in the signal context.

Have more accruate comments. While #if, #else, etc are copied to the
header files, lines that don't start with # are not. And #include files
are only output to sysinc (which winds up at the front of init_sysent.c
which seems a bit odd). This is all radically undocumented, and likely
has drifted somewhat from 4.4BSD and what other systems do (they've
drifted too, fwiw).

To avoid confusing people, rename linux_timer.h to linux_time.h,
as linux_timer.c is the implementation of timer syscalls only,
while linux_time.c contains implementation of all stuff declared
in linux_time.h.

Include vm headers directly where they needed. The linux_util.h included
in a most source files of the Linuxulator, avoid collecting a rarely used
includes here.
