* Remove the suser(9) interface from the kernel. It has been replaced fromattilio2008-09-171-6/+0
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | years by the priv_check(9) interface and just very few places are left. Note that compatibility stub with older FreeBSD version (all above the 8 limit though) are left in order to reduce diffs against old versions. It is responsibility of the maintainers for any module, if they think it is the case, to axe out such cases. This patch breaks KPI so __FreeBSD_version will be bumped into a later commit. This patch needs to be credited 50-50 with rwatson@ as he found time to explain me how the priv_check() works in detail and to review patches.

* Slight changes to reflect some of the changes in -current.julian2002-07-081-0/+10
| | | | | | | mi_switch(9) is still wildly innacurate. I suggest that every kernel developer takes 20 minutes a day for the next few days and updates one or two of his favourite chapter 9 man pages as they are now WAY out of date in general. I will add a couple of KSE related pages soon.
