        src/distrib/sets/lists/comp: mi
        src/share/man/man9: Makefile kmem.9
        src/sys/kern: subr_kmem.c
        src/sys/sys: kmem.h

Log Message:
Add kmem_tmpbuf_alloc(), a utility function for allocating memory for
temporary use where allocation on the stack is desirable, but only up to
a certain size.  If the requested size fits within the specified stack
buffer, the stack buffer is returned.  Otherwise, memory is allocated with
kmem_alloc().  Add a corresponding kmem_tmpbuf_free() function that frees
the memory using kmem_free() if it is not the tempory stack buffer location.
