There were two issues:
1. The area given to vt_is_cursor_in_area() was adding the drawable
area offset, something already handled by this function.
2. The cursor was shifted on the screen by the offset of this area
and thus was misplaced or not erased. Furthermore, when reaching
the bottom or right borders, the cursor was either totally
removed or not erased correctly.

This allows backends to verify they do not draw outside of this area.
This fixes a bug in vt_vga where the text was happily drawn over the
right and bottom margins, when using the Gallant font.

Rename vt_generate_vga_palette() to vt_generate_cons_palette() and
change it to build a palette where the color index is the same than in
terminal escape codes, not the VGA index. That's what TCHAR_CREATE()
uses and passes to vt(4).
The main differences between both orders are:
o Blue and red are swapped (1 <-> 4)
o Yellow and cyan are swapped (3 <-> 6)
The problem remained unnoticed, because the RGB bit indexes passed to
vt_generate_vga_palette() were reversed. This inversion was cancelled
by the colors inversions in the generated palette. For instance, red
(0xff0000) and blue (0x0000ff) have bytes in opposite order, but were
swapped in the palette. But after changing the value of blue (see last
paragraph), the modified color was in fact the red one.
This commit includes a fix to creator_vt.c, submitted by Nathan
Whitehorn: fb_cmsize is set to 16. Before this, the generated palette
would be overwritte. This fixes colors on sparc64 with a Creator3D
adapter.
While here, tune the palette to better match console colors and improve
the readability (especially the dark blue).

vt_fb_attach() currently always returns 0, but it could return a code
defined in errno.h. However, it doesn't return a CN_* code. So checking
its return value against CN_DEAD (which is 0) is incorrect, and in this
case, a success becomes a failure.
The consequence was unimportant, because the caller (drm_fb_helper.c)
would only log an error message in this case. The console would still
work.

The driver should also be easily adaptable to support newer Sun framebuffers
such as the XVR-500 and higher.

These changes prevent sysctl(8) from returning proper output,
such as:
1) no output from sysctl(8)
2) erroneously returning ENOMEM with tools like truss(1)
or uname(1)

there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

D2500CC which I have, syscons in text-mode fails to show the expected
contents due to write errors into video-memory.
At least one of the causes is that we copy from syscons internal buffer
to the video memory with optimized bcopy(9) which uses >16bit operations.
Until now, 32bit and wider operations have always worked on the video
memory, but since I cannot find a single source which says that this
SHALL work, and since these chipsets/bugs are now out there, this
commit changes syscons to always use 16bit copies on i386 & amd64.

(bus_generic_driver_added(9) since r52045 and bus_generic_print_child(9)
since r52045) but even recently added device drivers do this unnecessarily.

The SYSCTL_NODE macro defines a list that stores all child-elements of
that node. If there's no SYSCTL_DECL macro anywhere else, there's no
reason why it shouldn't be static.
- Implement bus_adjust_resource() methods as far as necessary and in non-PCI
bridge drivers as far as feasible without rototilling them.
- As NEW_PCIB does a layering violation by activating resources at layers
above pci(4) without previously bubbling up their allocation there, move
the assignment of bus tags and handles from the bus_alloc_resource() to
the bus_activate_resource() methods like at least the other NEW_PCIB
enabled architectures do. This is somewhat unfortunate as previously
sparc64 (ab)used resource activation to indicate whether SYS_RES_MEMORY
resources should be mapped into KVA, which is only necessary if their
going to be accessed via the pointer returned from rman_get_virtual() but
not for bus_space(9) as the later always uses physical access on sparc64.
Besides wasting KVA if we always map in SYS_RES_MEMORY resources, a driver
also may deliberately not map them in if the firmware already has done so,
possibly in a special way. So in order to still allow a driver to decide
whether a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be mapped into KVA we let it
indicate that by calling bus_space_map(9) with BUS_SPACE_MAP_LINEAR as
actually documented in the bus_space(9) page. This is implemented by
allocating a separate bus tag per SYS_RES_MEMORY resource and passing the
resource via the previously unused bus tag cookie so we later on can call
rman_set_virtual() in sparc64_bus_mem_map(). As a side effect this now
also allows to actually indicate that a SYS_RES_MEMORY resource should be
mapped in as cacheable and/or read-only via BUS_SPACE_MAP_CACHEABLE and
BUS_SPACE_MAP_READONLY respectively.
- Do some minor cleanup like taking advantage of rman_init_from_resource(),
factor out the common part of bus tag allocation into a newly added
sparc64_alloc_bus_tag(), hook up some missing newbus methods and replace
some homegrown versions with the generic counterparts etc.
- While at it, let apb_attach() (which can't use the generic NEW_PCIB code
as APB bridges just don't have the base and limit registers implemented)
regarding the config space registers cached in pcib_softc and the SYSCTL
reporting nodes set up.
