Make system call modules a bit more robust:
- If we fail to register the system call during MOD_LOAD, then note that
so that we don't try to deregister it or invoke the chained event handler
during the subsequent MOD_UNLOAD event. Doing the deregister when the
register failed could result in trashing system call entries.
- Add a SI_SUB_SYSCALLS just before starting up init and use that to
register syscall modules instead of SI_SUB_DRIVERS. Registering system
calls as late as possible increases the chances that any other module
event handlers or SYSINITs in a module are executed to initialize the
data in a kld before a syscall dependent on that data is able to be
invoked.
