Log:
   Several improvements to rmlock(9).  Many of these are based on patches
   provided by Isilon.
   - Add an rm_assert() supporting various lock assertions similar to other
     locking primitives.  Because rmlocks track readers the assertions are
     always fully accurate unlike rw_assert() and sx_assert().
   - Flesh out the lock class methods for rmlocks to support sleeping via
     condvars and rm_sleep() (but only while holding write locks), rmlock
     details in 'show lock' in DDB, and the lc_owner method used by
     dtrace.
   - Add an internal destroyed cookie so that API functions can assert
     that an rmlock is not destroyed.
   - Make use of rm_assert() to add various assertions to the API (e.g.
     to assert locks are held when an unlock routine is called).
   - Give RM_SLEEPABLE locks their own lock class and always use the
     rmlock's own lock_object with WITNESS.
   - Use THREAD_NO_SLEEPING() / THREAD_SLEEPING_OK() to disallow sleeping
     while holding a read lock on an rmlock.

Thanks!

Would it make sense to move struct rm_queue from struct pcpu itself to
using DPCPU as a next step?

Actually these were only relayed by me and came from Max Laier / Stephan
Uphoff.  So all fame to them.
