Log Message:
More improvements to mbuf and mbuf cluster allocation:

- Initialize mbpool and mclpool with msize and mclbytes, respectively,
so that those values may be patched and have an actual affect on the
next system reboot.

- Set low water marks on mbpool (default: 16) and mclpool (default: 8).
This should be of great help for diskless systems, which need to allocate
mbufs in order to clean dirty pages; the low water marks increase the
chances of this being possible to do in memory starvation situations.

- Add support for getting/setting some mbuf-related parameters via sysctl.
* msize and mclsize (read-only)
* nmbclusters (read-only unless the platform has direct-mapped pool pages,
in which case the value can be increased).
* mblowat and mcllowat (read/write)
