Modified Files:
	syssrc/sys/kern: sysv_sem.c

Log Message:
Remove existing semaphore system locking mechanism and turn
sys_semconfig into a placebo system call, to avoid giving folks an
easy way to wedge processes which use semaphores.

NOTE: unlike 386bsd and freebsd, processes which did not have
semaphore undo records would not be affected by this problem (reducing
it from a serious local denial-of-service problem to a largely
cosmetic problem, since virtually nobody uses semaphores).  But the
code is just Wrong so we're ripping it out anyway.
