This fixes problem with idle polling.

- Forget and do not check if_flags, if_capenable and if_drv_flags.
- Call all registered polling handlers unconditionally.
- Do not drop poll_mtx, when entering polling handlers.
- In ether_poll() NET_LOCK_GIANT prior to locking poll_mtx.
- In netisr_poll() axe the block, where polling code asks drivers
to unregister.
- In netisr_poll() and ether_poll() do polling always, if any
handlers are present.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() remove a lot of error hiding code. Assert
that arguments are correct, instead.
- In ether_poll_[de]register() use standard return values in case of
error or success.
- Introduce poll_switch() that is a sysctl handler for kern.polling.enable.
poll_switch() goes through interface list and enabled/disables polling.
A message that kern.polling.enable is deprecated is printed.
Detailed driver changes:
- On attach driver announces IFCAP_POLLING in if_capabilities, but
not in if_capenable.
- On detach driver calls ether_poll_deregister() if polling is enabled.
- In polling handler driver obtains its lock and checks IFF_DRV_RUNNING
flag. If there is no, then unlocks and returns.
- In ioctl handler driver checks for IFCAP_POLLING flag requested to
be set or cleared. Driver first calls ether_poll_[de]register(), then
obtains driver lock and [dis/en]ables interrupts.
- In interrupt handler driver checks IFCAP_POLLING flag in if_capenable.
If present, then returns.This is important to protect from spurious
interrupts.

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address

Add two new arguments to bus_dma_tag_create(): lockfunc and lockfuncarg.
Lockfunc allows a driver to provide a function for managing its locking
semantics while using busdma. At the moment, this is used for the
asynchronous busdma_swi and callback mechanism. Two lockfunc implementations
are provided: busdma_lock_mutex() performs standard mutex operations on the
mutex that is specified from lockfuncarg. dftl_lock() is a panic
implementation and is defaulted to when NULL, NULL are passed to
bus_dma_tag_create(). The only time that NULL, NULL should ever be used is
when the driver ensures that bus_dmamap_load() will not be deferred.
Drivers that do not provide their own locking can pass
busdma_lock_mutex,&Giant args in order to preserve the former behaviour.
sparc64 and powerpc do not provide real busdma_swi functions, so this is
largely a noop on those platforms. The busdma_swi on is64 is not properly
locked yet, so warnings will be emitted on this platform when busdma
callback deferrals happen.
If anyone gets panics or warnings from dflt_lock() being called, please
let me know right away.

structure, which is new to the 82550 and 82551, is used to transmit
a packet. This appears to fix the packet truncation problem that was
observed when using 82550-based fxp cards to transmit ICMP or fragmented
UDP packets of certain lengths which only had one to three bytes in the
second and final mbuf of the packet. This matches a note in the "Intel
8255x 10/100 Mbps Ethernet Controller Family Open Source Software Developer
Manual", which says that the hardware parse bit should be set when sending
these types of packets.
There have also been unconfirmed reports of similar problems when
transmitting TCP packets, which should not be affected by the above
mentioned change because the hardware parse bit was already being set
if the stack requested hardware checksumming of the packet. If the
problem remains, the use of the IPCB structure can be disabled to
cause the driver to fall back to using the older 82559 interface with
82550-based cards by setting

just limited to the DEVICE_POLLING case. This removes the FXP_RFA_RNRMARK
hack, and replaces it with a softc flag that is used to record when
the handling of a no-resource condition was deferred due to running
out of DEVICE_POLLING cycles. This was tested on -stable, but the
code is essentially the same as in -current. It should only affect
the case where DEVICE_POLLING is defined.
The details of the mechanism behind the crashes are still uncertain
but the most likely cause seems to be some kind of hardware confusion
when the no-resource recovery code is accidentally invoked while
the receiver is still active. This could have happened if the
hardware left the 0x4000 bit of the RFA status word set. The comments

descriptor (RFA) `status' field is borrowed to record no-resource

a time that may clash with the hardware updating this field.
There is no hardware documentation available to determine if these
things are safe to do; the second issue almost certainly isn't, and
the first is only safe if there is documentation saying that this
bit is free to be used by the driver. The PR referenced below
provides extremely convincing evidence that the changes cause random
crashes on some (unusual) hardware.
Since these features are only required by the DEVICE_POLLING case,
this commit makes their use conditional on that option. It does not
change the DEVICE_POLLING case, but at least people with the rare
hardware on which this code causes problems can now avoid the crashes
by not enabling DEVICE_POLLING.

sysctl kern.polling.enable=1
The percentage of CPU reserved to userland can be set with
sysctl kern.polling.user_frac=NN (default is 50)

These are the only two variables that you should need to touch. There
are a few more parameters in kern.polling but the default values
are adequate for all purposes. See the code in kern_poll.c for
more details on them.
Polling in the idle loop will be implemented shortly by introducing
a kernel thread which does the job. Until then, the amount of CPU
dedicated to polling will never exceed (100-user_frac).
