address lists, at_ifaddr_list. Acquire the lock, and use ifaddr
refcounts where necessary, to close most known address-related
races in netatalk.
Annotate one potential race in at_control() where we acquire an
ifaddr reference, drop the global lock, and scrub the address from
the ifnet before re-acquiring the global lock, which could allow
for a writer-writer race.

routing:
- style(9) cleanup -- white space, braces, etc.
- Make include guards consistent with our more general naming
convention.
- Rearrange and complete forward structure declarations in at_extern.h,
remove testing of guards of various other include files to protect
function declarations.
This leaves an ifdef _KERNEL in at_var.h, but from inspection it seems
likely that this file is not actually safe for inclusion in user space
still. However, since it's not included from within src/ so this does
not appear to be an issue (ifconfig, etc, have migrated to the generic
cross-protocol ioctls for address operations).
drain routines are done by swi_net, which allows for better queue control
at some future point. Packets may also be directly dispatched to a netisr
instead of queued, this may be of interest at some installations, but
currently defaults to off.

is an application space macro and the applications are supposed to be free
to use it as they please (but cannot). This is consistant with the other
BSD's who made this change quite some time ago. More commits to come.
Subnets are represented in the routing table as a set of
binary routing nets using the standard netmask algorythm.
The code produces the minimum possible set of standard netmasks and
net addresses to be able to represent a given netrange.
Kernel Appletalk protocol support
both CAP and netatalk can make use of this..
still needs some owrk but it seemd the right tiime to commit it
so other can experiment.
