As discussed in arm@. This is a scaled back version of the prior
commit because xscale is overlaoded in places to mean armv5 or
similar. The OLD XSCALE stuff hasn't been useful in a while. The
original committer (cognet@) was the only one that had boards for
it. He's blessed this removal. Newer XSCALE (GUMSTIX) is for hardware
that's quite old. After discussion on arm@, it was clear there was no
support for keeping it.

r336773 removed all things xscale. However, some things xscale are
really armv5. Revert that entirely. A more modest removal will follow.

jedec_dimm(4) is a superset of the functionality of jedec_ts(4). Mark
jedec_ts(4) as removed in FreeBSD 12, and include a pointer to the migration
instructions in the jedec_dimm(4) manpage, in both the jedec_ts(4) code and
the jedec_ts(4) manpage. Add a note to the jedec_dimm(4) manpage about the
fact that it is a superset of jedec_ts(4).
This change will be MFCed to stable/11 and stable/10; the followup change
to actually remove jedec_ts(4) from -HEAD will not.

Some section-4 manpages are architecture-specific, and the build process
currently generates only the pages for the MACHINE_CPUARCH being built.
man(1) supports a '-m' option to find manpages belonging to an arbitrary
architecture other than the MACHINE_[CPU]ARCH, but we have no way to
generate and install alternate-arch pages right now.
This change adds a new make.conf variable, MAN_ARCH, which can be a list of
one or more MACHINE_ARCH or MACHINE_CPUARCH values. All arch-specific
manpages that exist for the named arches will be installed. If unset, it
continues the behavior of installing just the MACHINE_CPUARCH being built.

Code analysis and runtime analysis using truss(8) indicate that the only
privileged operations performed by ntpd are adjusting system time, and
(re-)binding to privileged UDP port 123. These changes add a new mac(4)
policy module, mac_ntpd(4), which grants just those privileges to any
process running with uid 123.
This also adds a new user and group, ntpd:ntpd, (uid:gid 123:123), and makes
them the owner of the /var/db/ntp directory, so that it can be used as a
location where the non-privileged daemon can write files such as the
driftfile, and any optional logfile or stats files.
Because there are so many ways to configure ntpd, the question of how to
configure it to run without root privs can be a bit complex, so that will be
addressed in a separate commit. These changes are just what's required to
grant the limited subset of privs to ntpd, and the small change to ntpd to
prevent it from exiting with an error if running as non-root.

Track session objects in the framework, and pass handles between the
framework (OCF), consumers, and drivers. Avoid redundancy and complexity in
individual drivers by allocating session memory in the framework and
providing it to drivers in ::newsession().
Session handles are no longer integers with information encoded in various
high bits. Use of the CRYPTO_SESID2FOO() macros should be replaced with the
appropriate crypto_ses2foo() function on the opaque session handle.
Convert OCF drivers (in particular, cryptosoft, as well as myriad others) to
the opaque handle interface. Discard existing session tracking as much as
possible (quick pass). There may be additional code ripe for deletion.
Convert OCF consumers (ipsec, geom_eli, krb5, cryptodev) to handle-style
interface. The conversion is largely mechnical.
The change is documented in crypto.9.

On arm64 (and possible other architectures) we are unable to use static
DPCPU data in kernel modules. This is because the compiler will generate
PC-relative accesses, however the runtime-linker expects to be able to
relocate these.
In preparation to fix this create two macros depending on if the data is
global or static.

Update carp to set DSCP value CS7(Network Traffic) in the flowlabel field of
packets by default. Currently carp only sets TOS_LOWDELAY in IPv4 which was
deprecated in 1998. This also implements sysctl that can revert carp back to
it's old behavior if desired.
This will allow implementation of QOS on modern network devices to make sure
carp packets aren't dropped during interface contention.

Several ioctls are unused in pf, in the sense that no base utility
references them. Additionally, a cursory review of pf-based ports
indicates they're not used elsewhere either. Some of them have been
unused since the original import. As far as I can tell, they're also
unused in OpenBSD. Finally, removing this code removes the need for
future pf work to take them into account.

Allow attaching of multiple geli providers at once if they use same

This is helpful when the providers being attached are not used for boot,
and therefore the existing code to first try the cached password when
tasting the providers during boot does not apply.
Multiple providers with the same passphrase and keyfiles can be attached
at the same time during system start-up by adding the following to
