9976156f12 kern cons: introduce infrastructure for console grabbing by kernel
At the moment grab and ungrab methods of all console drivers are no-ops.

Current intended meaning of the calls is that the kernel takes control of
console input.  In the future the semantics may be extended to mean that
the calling thread takes full ownership of the console (e.g. console
output from other threads could be suspended).

e5a0927394 Follow up to r225203 refining break-to-debugger run-time configuration
improvements:

(1) Implement new model in previously missed at91 UART driver
(2) Move BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER and ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER from opt_comconsole.h
    to opt_kdb.h (spotted by np)
(3) Garbage collect now-unused opt_comconsole.h

4cf7545589 Attempt to make break-to-debugger and alternative break-to-debugger more
accessible:

(1) Always compile in support for breaking into the debugger if options
    KDB is present in the kernel.

(2) Disable both by default, but allow them to be enabled via tunables
    and sysctls debug.kdb.break_to_debugger and
    debug.kdb.alt_break_to_debugger.

(3) options BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER and options ALT_BREAK_TO_DEBUGGER continue
    to behave as before -- only now instead of compiling in
    break-to-debugger support, they change the default values of the
    above sysctls to enable those features by default.  Current kernel
    configurations should, therefore, continue to behave as expected.

(4) Migrate alternative break-to-debugger state machine logic out of
    individual device drivers into centralised KDB code.  This has a
    number of upsides, but also one downside: it's now tricky to release
    sio spin locks when entering the debugger, so we don't.  However,
    similar logic does not exist in other device drivers, including uart.

(5) dcons requires some special handling; unlike other console types, it
    allows overriding KDB's own debugger selection, so we need a new
    interface to KDB to allow that to work.

GENERIC kernels in -CURRENT will now support break-to-debugger as long as
appropriate boot/run-time options are set, which should improve the
debuggability of BETA kernels significantly.

61f7c762de Create the "cfecons" tty directly using tty_makedev(). It is not clear what
the intention of having two ttys pointing to the same cfe console device was.

Also we were not initializing the output[] array passed in as input to
tty_makedev() so one name of the ttys was garbage.

Fix the code that calls cfe_write() to deal with the case where only a partial
buffer is written out.

cfe_cngetc() needs to return if there is no character available as input.
If we don't do this then the cfe_timeout() function will spin forever
because cfe_cngetc() will only ever return if there is valid input.

c5e30cc02b Last minute TTY API change: remove mutex argument from tty_alloc().
I don't want people to override the mutex when allocating a TTY. It has
to be there, to keep drivers like syscons happy. So I'm creating a
tty_alloc_mutex() which can be used in those cases. tty_alloc_mutex()
should eventually be removed.

The advantage of this approach, is that we can just remove a function,
without breaking the regular API in the future.

c8978106d0 Remove unused consdev structure fields.
The cn_unit and cn_tp fields don't seem to be used anywhere. Some
drivers set them, while others don't. Just remove them, in an attempt to
make our consdev code a little easier to understand.

750595ef63 Change while (cond)\n\t\t; to while (cond)\n\t\tcontinue; since the
former more explicitly tells the compiler that you want an empty loop.
There are some lint programs that use this hint to avoid generating
warnings.

No functional change...

6f079ba163 Catch up to latest tty, kdb and SYSINIT changes. Modeled after the
dev/ofw changes, since this driver appears to have used that as a
start years ago...

other processors will work too.
