wifi: berlin prime bunny hopping
- reduce delay for channel hop to 200ms
- use 1000ms timeout for auth response (dont hop channels while we wait)
- bunny hop sequence is mathematically prooven

kernel: ignore memory pages with singular kernel addresses
addresses va's of 0 and -BY2PG cause trouble with some memmove()/memset()
implementations and possibly other code because of the nil pointer

zynq: fix barriers
unlock()/iunlock():
we need to place the coherence() *before* "l->key = 0", so that any
stores that where done while holding the lock become observable
*before* other processors see the lock released.
cas()/tas():
place memory barrier before successfull return to prevent reordering.

kernel: do not inherit Proc.dot (current working directory) in kproc()
making sure to close the dot in every kproc appears repetitive,
so instead stop inheriting the dot in kproc() as this is usually

give kernel processes and local disk file servers (procs

under starved condition by giving them ther own wait queue so
they get readied as soon as pages become available.

games/doom: fix desyncing demo (thanks qwx)
the code used P_Random()-P_Random() in some places which has
undefined evaluation order resulting in the wrong pseudo random
numbers being returned causing demo playback to desync.
this change adds P_Random2() function which returns the right
delta-random number and uses it in place of P_Random()-P_Random()
expression.

disk/edisk: fix blank mode
there where two problems with blank (-b flag):
we did not update the backup header when there was already a valid
backup header in place. we always want to initialize a new backup header
in blank mode!
we now also check the backup header matches the primary (or the other
way arround depending on which header could be read), reporting any
mismatches and restoring the backup from the data of the primary.
the protective mbr needs to start at sector 1 not 0 (apparently, this
matters for ovmf).

- sanity check: file has to be at least one sector to be a disk
