src/share/man/man9/man9.x86: tsc.9
Log Message:
Swap function names, so that xxx_bp() refers to the boot processor and
xxx_ap() to the application processor. It doesn't make any sense to
have bp reference the application processor while ap references boot!
XXX The two function are now lexicographically mis-ordered. If this
XXX is an issue, let me know and I will re-sequence them.
