Hi all,

I am submitting a patch which removes the register keyword from 
sys/kern/vfs_syscalls.c.  The reason I am doing this is very simple.

The 'register' keyword has no effect, as compilers do enough optimizations
on their own.   Also, I have seen commits made before which do the same
thing which I am doing now.  I have talked about this patch with jmallett,
and various other developers.

This patch is located at: 
http://storm.uk.FreeBSD.org/~hiten/diffs/vfs_syscalls.diff.1

The second issue, is what I am not very sure about, but I had a little
discussion about this with rwatson.  The vfs_subr.c module contains
a large #if 0'ed section, which basically contains some sysctls.  I
think it has been forgotten for removal, so I am submitting a delta which
can be used to remove that #if 0'ed section.

Note, I am not very sure about this, that is why I am posting this to
-hackers.

The patch is located at: 
http://storm.uk.FreeBSD.org/~hiten/diffs/vfs_subr.c.diff.1

Thanks.  If anyone finds them interesting, please commit them to the
CVS repository.

P.S. Please do not hesitate to contact me for more information reg.
these deltas.
