Instead of spinning in a tight loop for up to 15 seconds, polling for device
readiness while it spins up, return reset completion just after PHY reports
"connect well" or 100ms connection timeout. If device was found, use callout
for checking device readiness with 100ms period up to full 31 second timeout.
This fixes system freeze for 5-10 seconds on drives hot plug-in.

SCSI status errors to CAM (that was wrong, as it too often turned retriable
wire errors into non-retriable REQUEST SENSE errors), do it only for STALL
errors on control pipe of the CBI devices. STALL on control pipe is just
a one of the ways to report error for CBI devices.

ctl/ext noise floor values.
This routine doesn't check to see whether the radio is MIMO
capable - instead, it simply returns either the raw values,
the "nominal" values if the raw values aren't yet available
or are invalid, or '0' values if there's no valid channel/
no valid MIMO values.
Callers are expected to verify the radio is a MIMO radio
(which for now means it's an 11n chipset, there are non-11n
MIMO chipsets out there but I don't think we support them,
at least in MIMO mode) before exporting the MIMO values.
upper-level HAL.
Right now the per-chain noise floor values aren't used anywhere in
the upper-level HAL, so the driver currently has no real reference
to compare the per-chain RSSI values to.
This is needed before per-chain RSSI values (for ctl and ext radios)
are can be thrown upstairs to the net80211 code.
safer for i386 because it can be easily over 4 GHz now. More worse, it can
be easily changed by user with 'machdep.tsc_freq' tunable (directly) or
cpufreq(4) (indirectly). Note it is intentionally not used in performance
critical paths to avoid performance regression (but we should, in theory).
Alternatively, we may add "virtual TSC" with lower frequency if maximum
frequency overflows 32 bits (and ignore possible incoherency as we do now).

This fixes a long standing bug in mxge(4) where "ifconfig mxge0 $IP"
did not bring the interface into a RUNNING state, like it does on
most (all?) other FreeBSD NIC drivers.

- Add the change made in em to the actual unrefreshed number
of descriptors is used as a basis in rxeof on the way out
to determine if more refresh is needed. NOTE: there is a
difference in the ring setup in igb, this is not accidental,
it is necessitated by hardware behavior, when you reset the
newer adapters it will not let you write RDH, it ALWAYS sets
it to 0. Thus the way em does it is not possible.
- Change the sysctl handling of flow control, it will now make
the change dynamically when the variable setting changes rather
than requiring a reset.
- Change the eee sysctl naming, validation found the old unintuitive :)
- Last but not least, some important performance tweaks in the TX
path, I found that UDP behavior could be drastically hindered or
improved with just small changes in the start loop. What I have
here is what testing has shown to be the best overall. Its interesting
to note that changing the clean threshold to start at a full half of
the ring, made a BIG difference in performance. I hope that this
will prove to be advantageous for most workloads.

the test loop and the width is small enough. Also, relax normal width a bit
to count in a boundary case.
Unlike other controllers which have more advanced jumbo support,
these controllers have one send ring, one standard receive producer
ring and one receive return ring. In order to receive jumbo frames
on the controllers, driver now will increase Rx buffer size to 9k.
Two Rx modes are supported on these controllers and I chose
standard Rx BDs over extended Rx BDs. The extended Rx BD mode
allows up to 4 segmentations for each Rx BDs such that kernel does
not have to allocate large buffer of contiguous memory for
receiving. The extended Rx BD mode is already used on controllers
that have separate jumbo receive ring. However, using extended Rx
BDs on BCM5714/BCM5715/BCM5780 reduces the number of Rx BDs to 256
entries which in turn may reduce the performance. Also UMA backed
page allocator for jumbo frame returns contiguous memory so using
extended Rx BD has no advantage on FreeBSD unless highly customized
local allocator implemented in driver is used.
To use jumbo buffers in standard receive ring, Rx buffer allocation
handler was changed to allocate MJUM9BYTES sized mbuf.

It is virtually always false for hardware emulation and it makes no sense to
read it multiple times, which is already quite expensive for full emulation.
From the ath9k source:

11N: we can no longer afford to self link the last descriptor.
MAC acknowledges BA status as long as it copies frames to host
buffer (or rx fifo). This can incorrectly acknowledge packets
to a sender if last desc is self-linked.

Since this is useful for pre-AR5416 chips that communicate PHY errors
via error frames rather than by on-chip counters, leave the support
in there, but disable it for AR5416 and later.
