EARLY_AP_STARTUP was introduced in 2016 (commit fdce57a042) with note:
As a transition aid, the new behavior is moved under a new
kernel option (EARLY_AP_STARTUP). This will allow the option
to be turned off if need be during initial testing. I hope to
enable this on x86 by default in a followup commit ...
It was enabled by default, but became effectively mandatory (on x86)
some time later. Move it to DEFAULTS to avoid an unbootable system if
the option is left out of a custom kernel configuration file.

Following the removal of general MIPS support, there's no longer a need
to have the AHB bus-frontend in place, which according to Linux sources
also isn't used with any non-MIPS SoCs. For simplicity, PCI bus support
is only made conditional on the main one again, i. e. device ath_pci is
removed, and built into the main module, i. e. if_ath_pci.ko obsoleted,
respectively.
Effectively, this reverts the following commits and associated changes:

Several vm_radix tries are not initialized with vm_radix_init. That
works, for now, since static initialization zeroes the root field
anyway, but if initialization changes, these tries will fail. Add
missing initializer calls.

Use of compiler builtin ffs/ctz functions will result in optimized
instruction sequences when possible, and fall back to calling a function
provided by the compiler run-time library. We have slowly shifted our
platforms to take advantage of these builtins in 60645781d6 (arm64),
1c76d3a9fb (arm), 9e319462a0 (powerpc, partial).
Some platforms still rely on the libkern implementations of these
functions provided by libkern, namely riscv, powerpc (ffs*, flsll), and
i386 (ffsll and flsll). These routines are slow, as they perform a
linear search for the bit in question. Even on platforms lacking
dedicated bit-search instructions, such as riscv, the compiler library
will provide better-optimized routines, e.g. by using binary search.
Consolidate all definitions of these functions (whether currently using
builtins or not) to libkern.h. This should result in equivalent or
better performing routines in all cases.
One wart in all of this is the existing HAVE_INLINE_F*** macros, which
we use in a few places to conditionally avoid the slow libkern routines.
These aren't easily removed in one commit. For now, provide these
defines unconditionally, but marked for removal after subsequent
cleanup.
Removal of the now unused libkern routines will follow in the next
commit.

The declaration didn't use matching array bounds as the later
definition raising a -Warray-parameters warning from GCC. However,
the function is also defined before it is used, so the declaration
isn't strictly needed.
The sysentvec sv_imgact_try was used by kern_exec() to allow
non-native ABI to fixup shell path according to ABI root directory.
Since the non-native ABI can now specify its root directory directly
to namei() via pwd_altroot() call this facility is not needed anymore.

This avoids bloating the kernel image when MAXCPU is large.
A follow-up patch for kgdb and other kernel debuggers is needed since
the stoppcbs symbol is now a pointer. Bump __FreeBSD_version so that
debuggers can use osreldate to figure out how to handle stoppcbs.

As of version 2.6.0 of the Linux kernel, dev_t is a 32-bit unsigned integer
on all platforms. Prior the 2.6 kernel dev_t type was an unsigned short.
However, since the firs commit of the Linuxulator, mknod syscall get int dev
argument.
Also, there is some confusion here, while the kernel declares a dev_t type
as a 32-bit sized, the user-space dev_t type can be size of 64 bits, e.g.,
in the Glibc library.
To avoid confusion and to help porting of the Linuxulator to other platforms
use explicit l_dev_t for dev argument of mknod syscalls.
The driver is enormous and rarely used.

Have more accruate comments. While #if, #else, etc are copied to the
header files, lines that don't start with # are not. And #include files
are only output to sysinc (which winds up at the front of init_sysent.c
which seems a bit odd). This is all radically undocumented, and likely
has drifted somewhat from 4.4BSD and what other systems do (they've
drifted too, fwiw).
