<sys/systm.h> should not be sorted alphabeticaly, since it declares
things like KASSERT() and (by nested includes) hundreds of inline
functions (especially ones in <machine/atomic.h>, <machine/cpufunc.h>
and <sys/libkern.h>) which are used in many other headers. It should
be sorted immediately after <sys/param.h> where it was.
Mis-sorting it is sometimes masked by namespace pollution in other
headers. <sys/mbuf.h> has the grossest namespace pollution despite
me once completely cleaning it up :-(. It now includes <sys/systm.h>
and <vm/uma.h>. (<vm/uma.h> is even more disgusting. It starts by
including <sys/param.h> and says that this is "/* for NULL */", despite
there being a whole header <sys/_null.h> for the purpose of defining
NULL and thus avoiding namespace which would be caused by defining
NULL in a more central header, and despite it using _much_ more of
<sys/param.h> than the definition of NULL.) But most headers aren't
as bad. Thus sorting <sys/systm.h> alphabetically (near the end)
rarely works, and even when it works it is fragile and will break when
a header sorted before it starts using KASSERT().
