  Modified files:
    sys/kern             kern_clock.c 
  Log:
  Make the previous behaviour the default, add a sysctl which you
  can set if your hw/sw produces the "calcru negative..." message.
  
  Setting the alternate method (sysctl -w kern.timecounter.method=1)
  makes the the get{nano|micro}*() functions call the real thing at
  resulting in a measurable but minor overhead.
  
  I decided to NOT have the "calcru" change the method automatically
  because you should be aware of this problem if you have it.
  
  The problems currently seen, related to usleep and a few other corners
  are fixed for both methods.
