Log:
Fix a problem with the VN device. Specifically, the VN device can
cause a problem of spiraling death due to buffer resource limitations.
The vfs_bio code in general had little ability to handle buffer resource
management, and now it does. Also, there are a lot more knobs for tuning the
vfs_bio code now. The knobs came free because of the need that there
always be some immediately available buffers (non-delayed or locked) for
use. Note that the buffer cache code is much less likely to get bogged
down with lots of delayed writes, even more so than before.
