Log:
Disable debugging by default.
I don't like this on head. I have found a number of issues that were
hidden because the kernel config most people were using for development
had WITNESS, INVARIANTS and DIAGNOSTIC disabled.
I think arm codebase is so small, so every commit is like
a huge evolutional update...
Is anyone merging every commit to stable? no
so I think arm users prefered to run -current, not stable.
(say they need fb driver for chromebook).
Developer can set debug locally any time, but users no idea
about debugging is ON, so they get running slow system,
and then got disappointed.

It's still super dangerous. For one thing, it means the debug code will
bitrot since it is never turned on. For another, the beginning of
/usr/src/UPDATING has a huge banner about this and what to do about it
already.
