Change 113921 by csjp at csjp_rnd01 on 2007/02/02 21:58:07

	- Drop the Giant requirement for the system calls
	- Fix a problem which resulted in select(2)/poll(2) waking up
	  constantly indicating that the file descriptor was ready to
	  read.  This occured because the old old simply looked at the
	  size of the hold buffer and used that to indicate that there
	  was data ready to read. In the old world order we used set
	  the hold buffer length to 0 after bpf_uiomove() returned.
	
	  In the zero copy world, we tell the kernel we are done with
	  the buffer by incrementing the user generation number, leaving
	  the hold buffer length un-touched.
	
	  This change basically looks to see if the user and kernel
	  generation numbers are different, and if so, wakes up the
	  reader
