New Revision: 240067
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/240067

Log:
  Add kern.hintmode sysctl variable to show current state of hints:
  0 - loader hints in environment only;
  1 - static hints only
  2 - fallback mode (Dynamic KENV with fallback to kernel environment)
  Add kern.hintmode write handler, accept only value 2. That will switch
  static KENV to dynamic. So it will be possible to change device hints.
