Add an additional struct inpcb * argument to pfil(9) in order to enable
passing along socket information. This is required to work around a LOR with the socket code which results in an easy reproducible hard lockup with debug.mpsafenet=1. This commit does *not* fix the LOR, but enables us to do so later. The missing piece is to turn the filter locking into a leaf lock and will follow in a seperate (later) commit. This will hopefully be MT5'ed in order to fix the problem for RELENG_5 in forseeable future. Suggested by: rwatson A lot of work by: csjp (he'd be even more helpful w/o mentor-reviews ;) Reviewed by: rwatson, csjp Tested by: -pf, -ipfw, LINT, csjp and myself MFC after: 3 days LOR IDs: 14 - 17 (not fixed yet)
