The upcoming in-kernel implementations for LinuxKPI based on work on
iwlwifi (and other wireless drivers) conflicts in a few places with
the drm-kmod graphics work outside the base system.
In order to transition smoothly extract the conflicting bits.
This included "unaligned" accessor functions, sg_pcopy_from_buffer(),
IS_*() macros (to be further restricted in the future), power management
bits (possibly no longer conflicting with DRM), and other minor changes.

list.h includes a number of FreeBSD headers as a workaround for the
LIST_HEAD name collision. To reduce pollution, avoid including list.h
in commonly used headers when it is not explicitly needed.

- Declare some static functions in linux_compat.c instead if inside
various header files.
- Prefix FreeBSD local functions in the LinuxKPI with "linux_" to
avoid symbol name conflicts in the future and to make debugging
easier.
- Make the "struct kobj_ktype" declaractions constant to shave off a
few bytes from the data segment.

LinuxKPI. Compute string length before allocating memory instead of
using fixed size allocations. Make kobject_set_name_vargs() global
instead of inline to save some bytes when compiling.

- Move all files related to the LinuxKPI into sys/compat/linuxkpi and
its subfolders.
- Update sys/conf/files and some Makefiles to use new file locations.
- Added description of COMPAT_LINUXKPI to sys/conf/NOTES which in turn
adds the LinuxKPI to all LINT builds.
- The LinuxKPI can be added to the kernel by setting the
COMPAT_LINUXKPI option. The OFED kernel option no longer builds the
LinuxKPI into the kernel. This was done to keep the build rules for
the LinuxKPI in sys/conf/files simple.
- Extend the LinuxKPI module to include support for USB by moving the
Linux USB compat from usb.ko to linuxkpi.ko.
- Bump the FreeBSD_version.
- A universe kernel build has been done.
