speed using the boot blocks, instead of a hardcoded value stuck in the
kernel. This way, you can have systems using the same kernel but different
console speeds.
Add a sysctl entry for changing the system console speed.
Lock the user tty speed to match the system console speed.
Nuke CONSPEED.

There are various options documented in i386/conf/LINT, there is more to
come over the next few days.
The kernel should run pretty much "as before" without the options to
activate SMP mode.
There are a handful of known "loose ends" that need to be fixed, but
have been put off since the SMP kernel is in a moderately good condition
at the moment.
This commit is the result of the tinkering and testing over the last 14
months by many people. A special thanks to Steve Passe for implementing
the APIC code!

for use with gdb-remote.
Fixed setting of speed at probe time for the serial console (if any).

Use the default console cfcr setting while setting the divisor

Use a usual cfcr setting while setting the divisor latch registers

Simplified timestamp code by reading the time exactly when necessary.
This may slow down the interrupt handler with extra calls to microtime(),
but only in bad configurations - the input fifo should normally be
disabled if timestamps on input are being used, since otherwise the
timestamp won't be precisely associated with any particular input event.
The interrupt handler remains slowed down by one test and branch for
each input (and now DCD change) event - avoiding this is not practical
yet.
The simplifications also fixed:
- timestamps for input sometimes being clobbered by output and modem
status interrupts.
- valid timestamps not being available unless the port is configured with
vector siointrts. siointrts no longer exists.
- compiler warnings about siointr* in some configurations.
Simplified timestamp and probe code by depending on recent changes in
microtime() and DELAY() to preserve the interrupt enable flag.
unintentionally committed):
- the fifo was completely disabled for low speeds. Apart from being
unnecessarily inefficient, this invalidated com->tx_fifo_size.
- `ftl' became a bogus name.
- the 16650 probe breaks the COM_NOFIFO() case and has other bugs
(disabled, not fixed).
Fixed bogus change of the fifo settings for the non-speed of 0. This
bug made the above fifo bug occur even at non-low speeds.
Fixed the modes of the cua devices. It isn't possible to set the uid
and gid correctly since the kernel can't know who uucp.dialer is.
Register the devswitch at device attach time. SYSINIT() is not
the right way to initialize devswitches (if anything :->).
Eventually, the devswitch should be deregistered at device detach
and/or unload time and reregistered at device attach time ... Then
some com->gone tests could be removed.
Cleaned up some other recent changes.
