42050e39f8 kernel and servers send diagnostic messages to IS; IS sends them to TTY
and the new log driver if enabled.

new usyslogd is started from /usr/etc/rc. New device created by
MAKEDEV.sh. /var/log created by etc/mtree/minix.tree (on root for
now). Made select() slightly more generic, with less code duplication.

e0a98a4d65 * Fixed bug relating to nested locking in interrupt handlers. The nested lock
caused interrupts to be reenabled (due to unlock), which caused a race. The
problems were especially visible on slower machines.
* Relocated free memory parsing to process manager. This saved quite some
code at the kernel level. Text size was reduced by about 650 bytes.
* Removed locks for updating the realtime in the clock's main loop and the
get_uptime function. Interrupts are no longer reentrant, so realtime is
immediately updated.

ccd17ecfed New NOTIFY system call! Queued at kernel. Duplicate messages (with same source
and type) are overwritten with newer flags/ arguments. The interface from
within the kernel is lock_notify(). User processes can make a system call with
notify(). NOTIFY fully replaces the old notification mechanism.
