This brings USB bus more in line with how newbus is supposed to be used.
Also, because of the two-pass probing the following message was produced
by devd in default configuration when almost any USB device was
connected:
Unknown USB device: vendor <> product <> bus <>
This should be fixed now.
Note that many USB device drivers pass some information from probe
method to attach method via ivars. For this to continue working we rely
on the fact that the subr_bus code calls probe method of a winning driver
again before calling its attach method in the case where multiple
drivers claim to support a device. This is done because device
description is set in successful probe methods and we want to get a correct
device description from a winning driver. So now this logic is re-used
for setting ivars too.

(reporting IFM_LOOP based on BMCR_LOOP is left in place though as
it might provide useful for debugging). For most mii(4) drivers it
was unclear whether the PHYs driven by them actually support
loopback or not. Moreover, typically loopback mode also needs to
be activated on the MAC, which none of the Ethernet drivers using
mii(4) implements. Given that loopback media has no real use (and
obviously hardly had a chance to actually work) besides for driver
development (which just loopback mode should be sufficient for
though, i.e one doesn't necessary need support for loopback media)
support for it is just dropped as both NetBSD and OpenBSD already
did quite some time ago.
- Let mii_phy_add_media() also announce the support of IFM_NONE.
- Restructure the PHY entry points to use a structure of entry points
instead of discrete function pointers, and extend this to include
a "reset" entry point. Make sure any PHY-specific reset routine is
always used, and provide one for lxtphy(4) which disables MII
interrupts (as is done for a few other PHYs we have drivers for).
This includes changing NIC drivers which previously just called the
generic mii_phy_reset() to now actually call the PHY-specific reset
routine, which might be crucial in some cases. While at it, the
redundant checks in these NIC drivers for mii->mii_instance not being
zero before calling the reset routines were removed because as soon
as one PHY driver attaches mii->mii_instance is incremented and we
hardly can end up in their media change callbacks etc if no PHY driver
has attached as mii_attach() would have failed in that case and not
attach a miibus(4) instance.
Consequently, NIC drivers now no longer should call mii_phy_reset()
directly, so it was removed from EXPORT_SYMS.
- Add a mii_phy_dev_attach() as a companion helper to mii_phy_dev_probe().
The purpose of that function is to perform the common steps to attach
a PHY driver instance and to hook it up to the miibus(4) instance and to
optionally also handle the probing, addition and initialization of the
supported media. So all a PHY driver without any special requirements
has to do in its bus attach method is to call mii_phy_dev_attach()
along with PHY-specific MIIF_* flags, a pointer to its PHY functions
and the add_media set to one. All PHY drivers were updated to take
advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() as appropriate. Along with these
changes the capability mask was added to the mii_softc structure so
PHY drivers taking advantage of mii_phy_dev_attach() but still
handling media on their own do not need to fiddle with the MII attach
arguments anyway.
- Keep track of the PHY offset in the mii_softc structure. This is done
for compatibility with NetBSD/OpenBSD.
- Keep track of the PHY's OUI, model and revision in the mii_softc
structure. Several PHY drivers require this information also after
attaching and previously had to wrap their own softc around mii_softc.
NetBSD/OpenBSD also keep track of the model and revision on their
mii_softc structure. All PHY drivers were updated to take advantage
as appropriate.
- Convert the mebers of the MII data structure to unsigned where
appropriate. This is partly inspired by NetBSD/OpenBSD.
- According to IEEE 802.3-2002 the bits actually have to be reversed
when mapping an OUI to the MII ID registers. All PHY drivers and
miidevs where changed as necessary. Actually this now again allows to
largely share miidevs with NetBSD, which fixed this problem already
9 years ago. Consequently miidevs was synced as far as possible.
- Add MIIF_NOMANPAUSE and mii_phy_flowstatus() calls to drivers that
weren't explicitly converted to support flow control before. It's
unclear whether flow control actually works with these but typically
it should and their net behavior should be more correct with these
changes in place than without if the MAC driver sets MIIF_DOPAUSE.

AX88772 controllers. ASIX added a new feature for AX88178/AX88772
controllers which allows combining multiple TX frames into a single
big frame. This was to overcome one of USB limitation where it
can't generate more than 8k interrupts/sec which in turn means USB
ethernet controllers can not send more than 8k packets per second.
Using ASIX's feature greatly enhanced TX performance(more than 3~4
times) compared to 7.x driver. However it seems r184610 removed
boundary checking for buffered frames which in turn caused
instability issues under certain conditions. In addition, using
ASIX's feature triggered another issue which made USB controller
hang under certain conditions. Restarting ethernet controller
didn't help under this hang condition and unplugging and replugging
the controller was the only solution. I believe there is a silicon
bug in TX frame combining feature on AX88178/AX88772 controllers.
To address these issues, reintroduce the boundary checking for both
AX88178 and AX88772 after copying a frame to USB buffer and do not
use ASIX's multiple frame combining feature. Instead, use USB
controller's multi-frame transmit capability to enhance TX
performance as suggested by Hans[1].
This should fix a long standing axe(4) instability issues reported
on AX88772 and AX88178 controllers. While I'm here remove
unnecessary TX frame length check since upper stack always
guarantee the size of a frame to be less than MCLBYTES.
