Log message:
softclock: move softintr registration/scheduling into timeout module
softclock() is scheduled from hardclock(9) because long ago callouts were
processed from hardclock(9) directly. The introduction of timeout(9) circa
2000 moved all callout processing into a dedicated module, but the softclock
scheduling stayed behind in hardclock(9).
We can move all the softclock() "stuff" into the timeout module to make
kern_clock.c a bit cleaner. Neither initclocks() nor hardclock(9) need
to "know" about softclock(). The initial softclock() softintr registration
can be done from timeout_proc_init() and softclock() can be scheduled
from timeout_hardclock_update().
