CVS commit: src/sys/miscfs/kernfs

[Daniel Carosone <dan%netbsd.org@localhost>]

Module Name:    src

Modified Files:
        src/sys/miscfs/kernfs: kernfs_vnops.c

Log Message:
Make vnode times on /kern/boottime be the boot time, not "now".

Handy because ls(1) helpfully converts the time to human-readable
format when printing, and because shell tools like "test -nt" and
"find -newer" can be used against it.

"Inspired" by a discussion about removing lockfiles older than the
last reboot, and Al Crooks' handy observation that a close
approximation can be found with /var/run/dmesg.boot

While here, notice that a lot of the kernfs structures and naming
changed suddenly, and though it seems a clear improvement, there was no
mention in commit logs.
