Flag D_MT

This flag is defined in IRIX 6.2 but has no effect in that release. Future releases of IRIX will run driver interrupt routines as lightweight threads of control within the kernel address space. D_MT indicates that this driver understands that it can be run as one or more cooperating threads, and uses kernel synchronization primitives to serialize access to driver common data structures.
