I would just have a single thread.9 manpage much like we have a single
ucred.9, kthread.9 (bad name), mutex.9, etc.  It makes it easier when
you can discuss a subsystem as a whole and then describe each function
within that context rather than scattering it across a bunch of different
manpages.  However, that is a matter of opinion.  The new-bus manpages
are an example of using one page per function.  Personally I find them
a bit hard to follow as a result. :-P
