This fixes problems with discovering some USB devices that are very slow to
respond during initialisation.
When a USB device is inserted, CAM performs the sequence:
1) INQUIRY
2) INQUIRY (second time with other parameters)
3) TEST UNIT READY
4) READ CAPACITY
Before this change CAM didn't check if TEST UNIT READY was successful and went
on blindly to the next state and sent READ CAPACITY. If the device was still
not ready by then, CAM ended with error message. This patch adds checking for the
status of TEST UNIT READY command and retrying up to 10 times with 0.5 sec
interval.

When trying to read scratched or damaged CDs and DVDs, the default
mechanism is sub-optimal. Programs like ddrescue do much better if
you turn off retries entirely, since their algorithms are designed
scan big areas fast, then winnow the areas down. Turning off retries
speeds these programs up by as much as 20x, since the drive is able to
'stream past' many small errors...
The sysctl/tunable kern.cam.cd.retry_count controls this. That
defaults to '4' (for a total of 5 attempts). Setting to 0 turns off
all retry attempts.

does - in DragonFly, it's cam_sim_release() what actually frees the
SIM; cam_sim_free does nothing more than calling cam_sim_release().
Here, we drain in cam_sim_free, waiting for refcount to drop to zero.
We cannot do the same think DragonFly does, because after cam_sim_free
returns, client would destroy the sim->mtx, and CAM would trip over
an initialized mutex.

to actually use it would panic on mtx operation, as dead_sim doesn't
have a proper mutex. Even if it had a properly initialized mutex,
it wouldn't have properly locked and owned one.

After I removed all the unit2minor()/minor2unit() calls from the kernel
yesterday, I realised calling minor() everywhere is quite confusing.
Character devices now only have the ability to store a unit number, not
a minor number. Remove the confusion by using dev2unit() everywhere.
This commit could also be considered as a bug fix. A lot of drivers call
minor(), while they should actually be calling dev2unit(). In -CURRENT
this isn't a problem, but it turns out we never had any problem reports
related to that issue in the past. I suspect not many people connect
more than 256 pieces of the same hardware.

When I changed kern_conf.c three months ago I made device unit numbers
equal to (unneeded) device minor numbers. We used to require
bitshifting, because there were eight bits in the middle that were
reserved for a device major number. Not very long after I turned
dev2unit(), minor(), unit2minor() and minor2unit() into macro's.
The unit2minor() and minor2unit() macro's were no-ops.
We'd better not remove these four macro's from the kernel, because there
is a lot of (external) code that may still depend on them. For now it's
harmless to remove all invocations of unit2minor() and minor2unit().

because the media was removed, the periph would get its refcount dropped
and ultimately freed before getting unlocked. This created a dangling
pointer that was easy to trip over. This fixes a common source of
crashes with removaable media, but problems remain and will get tracked
down.

Note opcodes for scanner and communication devices are taken from the previous
revision because they are not listed in the files any more.
Also, note newly added ASCs are all marked with 'XXX TBD' and take SS_RDEF action
for now. Some ASCs need SS_TUR for error recovery or SS_FATAL to prevent further
retrials. We should deal with them later.

device supports retrieving a serial number. Instead, first query the
list of VPD pages it does support, and only query the serial number if
it's supported, else silently move on. This eliminates a lot of noise
during verbose booting, and will likely eliminate the need for most
NOSERIAL quirks.

purposes of deciding which DDB script to run.

Thos makes way for us to add REAL kthread_create() and friends
that actually make theads. it turns out that most of these
calls actually end up being moved back to the thread version
when it's added. but we need to make this cosmetic change first.
I'd LOVE to do this rename in 7.0 so that we can eventually MFC the
new kthread_xxx() calls.
