New Revision: 194549
URL: http://svn.freebsd.org/changeset/base/194549

Log:
  Remove definition of dtom(), which converted a data pointer into a
  pointer to the containing mbuf.  This eliminates a strong assumption
  about the layout of network buffer memory, giving us greater
  flexibility to revise mbuf semantics in the future.
