o Fix the packet statistics
o Make sure we set the FD bit when in full duplex
o Improve TX side efficency by eliminating a data copy for
unfragmented mbufs (the hardware can't do s/g).
o Minor busdma pedantry
o better comments in some places, more XXX in others
o Minor style nits.
This solves a problem I was seeing where I'd get no ethernet when not
booting with a NFS root. Well, unless I unplugged the cable and
plugged it back in first so I'd get the same up down up messages I get
for NFS root...
Thanks to sam and scottl for suggestions on making this driver more
efficient through better use of approrpiate APIs.
a lock to prevent interspersed strings written from different CPUs
at the same time.
To avoid putting a buffer on the stack or having to malloc one,
space is incorporated in the per-cpu structure. The buffer
size if 128 bytes; chosen because it's the next power of 2 size
up from 80 characters.
String writes to the console are buffered up the end of the line
or until the buffer fills. Then the buffer is flushed to all
console devices.
Existing low level console output via cnputc() is unaffected by
this change. ithread calls to log() are also unaffected to avoid
blocking those threads.
A minor change to the behaviour in a panic situation is that
console output will still be buffered, but won't be written to
a tty as before. This should prevent interspersed panic output
as a number of CPUs panic before we end up single threaded
running ddb.

The 'nooption' kernel config entry has to be used to turn KSE off now.
This isn't my preferred way of dealing with this, but I'll defer to
scottl's experience with the io/mem kernel option change and the grief
experienced over that.

syscalls using __syscall but only actually returning 32bits, such as mmap(),
specially : they set the return value in td->td_retval[0], but the userland
functions will expect this in r1, and not in r0 as it is normally done, as it
is the LSB. So add a special case for all these syscalls (all except lseek,
which truly returns 64bits).
Many thanks to Peter Grehan for his patience while explaining me the issue.
This interface also appears in the AT91SAM9260 and '61 as well as the
AVR32 based micros from Atmel. We don't yet support write protect or
hot-swap in this bridge driver.

the address space available for user processes a bit, but given the amount of
memory a typical arm machine has, it is not (yet) a big issue.
It then provides a uma_small_alloc() that works as it does for architectures

Originally, I had adopted sparc64's name, pmap_clear_write(), for the
function that is now pmap_remove_write(). However, this function is more
like pmap_remove_all() than like pmap_clear_modify() or
pmap_clear_reference(), hence, the name change.
The higher-level rationale behind this change is described in
src/sys/amd64/amd64/pmap.c revision 1.567. The short version is that I'm
trying to clean up and fix our support for execute access.

- Add a new check to make sure we don't return from a syscall in a critical
section.
- Add a new explicit check before userret() to make sure we don't return
with any locks held. The advantage here is that we can include the
syscall number and name in syscall() whereas that info is not available
in userret().
- Drop the mtx_assert()'s of sched_lock and Giant. They are replaced by
the more general checks just added.
