visible change is that a TASK_DESTROY() macro has been added to mirror
the TASK_INIT() macro to destroy a task before it is free'd.

This is functionally equivalent to teh previousl -current except

decode the BIOS and firmware version and announce the board as HP NetRaid.
This has been tested with a NetRaid 3si controller, the BIOS/firmware
printout should also work for other NetRaid controllers but the type
detection for other NetRaids (such as the 1si) will not work due to the
lack of hardware.

Fix amr_map_command so that 40LD-specific commands get the scatter-gather
list count in the right place. I don't understand why AMI did it like
this, but now the AMI MegaManager can talk to the newer (1600 and later)
controllers.
Remove an unused variable.
Include <machine/clock.h> when necessary.
Tweak some debugging levels to make things more intelligible.
- New support for 40LD firmware found in Series 475 and 471 adapters.
- Better support for 8LD firmware adapters
- Ioctl passthrough interface for userland utilities.
- Improved error handling and queueing.
- Several bugfixes (including the 'still open' shutdown bug and
closing some small race conditions).
- Zone-style command allocator, reducing memory wasted under heavy
load conditions.
- CAM interface (disabled and not fully working) for SCSI passthrough
access to non-disk devices
Thanks to AMI for supplying a pile of new adapters and various other
help in making this happen.

This should fix booting from these controllers.

<sys/bio.h> is now a prerequisite for <sys/buf.h> but it shall
not be made a nested include according to bdes teachings on the
subject of nested includes.
Diskdrivers and similar stuff below specfs::strategy() should no
longer need to include <sys/buf.> unless they need caching of data.
Still a few bogus uses of struct buf to track down.

Move B_ORDERED flag to b_ioflags and call it BIO_ORDERED.
Move b_pblkno and b_iodone_chain to struct bio while we transition, they

Add bio_queue field for struct bio aware disksort.
Address a lot of stylistic issues brought up by bde.

lost commands, further functionality pending data from AMI.
Add some new commands states; WEDGED (never coming back) and

- Remove a number of redundant efforts to poll the card for completed
commands. This is what interrupt handlers are for.
- Limit the maximum number of outstanding I/O transactions. It seems
that some controllers report more than they can really handle,
and exceding this limit can cause the controller to lock up.
- Don't use 'wait' mode for anything where the controller might not
be able to generate interrupts. (Keep the 'wait' mode though sa it
will become useful when we start taking userspace commands.
- Use a similar atomic locking trategy to the Mylex driver to prevent
some reentrancy problems.
- Correctly calculate the block count for non-whoile-bloch transfers

- Use the dsik device's si_drv1 field instead of b_driver1 in the
buf struct to pass the driver identifier arond.

field in struct buf: b_iocmd. The b_iocmd is enforced to have
exactly one bit set.
B_WRITE was bogusly defined as zero giving rise to obvious coding
mistakes.
Also eliminate the redundant struct buf flag B_CALL, it can just
as efficiently be done by comparing b_iodone to NULL.
Should you get a panic or drop into the debugger, complaining about
"b_iocmd", don't continue. It is likely to write on your disk
where it should have been reading.
This change is a step in the direction towards a stackable BIO capability.

This loop needs something to tie it to real time, rather than just the CPU's

device_add_child_ordered(). 'ivars' may now be set using the
device_set_ivars() function.
This makes it easier for us to change how arbitrary data structures are
associated with a device_t. Eventually we won't be modifying device_t
to add additional pointers for ivars, softc data etc.
Despite my best efforts I've probably forgotten something so let me know
if this breaks anything. I've been running with this change for months
and its been quite involved actually isolating all the changes from
the rest of the local changes in my tree.
