o remove os-specific glue code; it's now the responsibility of
the driver
o add wackelf utility for patching the ELF magic number on arm
builds since noone can agree on how to mark a .o file as not
having any floating point instructions
o remove radar/dfs-related entry points; folks have finally
decided how to support dfs w/o polluting the hal
o properly recognize AR2424 chips (they were being rejected on
attach despite being fully supported)
o add HAL_CAP_RXORN_FATAL capability to control how RXORN errors
are handled; previously RXORN was always treated as fatal because
older chips required a reset; now we do not treat it as fatal
for "newer chips" (noone seems to know what the cutoff is so
this capability can be used to override the current guestimate)
o HAL_CAP_RXTSTAMP_PREC capability to export the number of bits
of precision for timestamp data returned in the rx descriptor
o remove public exposure of the compression buffer; it is chip
specific and never belonged in the public view
o change definition of HAL_INT_GLOBAL from an enum member to a
#define to workaround compilers that bitch about enum values
that appear overflow 31 bits
o add support for newer chips that can store the tkip mic key
together with the cipher key in a single key cache entry
o split tx/rx descriptor into a h/w section and a s/w portion;
this permits storing the s/w area in cached memory when the
h/w area is stored in uncached memory; this also shrinks
memory use since only one status block is needed while multiple
tx/rx descriptors may be required per frame
o add final transmit series index to the transmit descriptor status
so rate control algorithms don't need to grovel through h/w state
to find it
o remove ds_vdata field from the descriptor state as part of the
radar changes
o fix excessive stack usage for some 5212 rf backends
o correct rfkill handling when the pin polarity is 0 true
o correct handling of tsf wrap when reading 64-bit values

o correct the copyright on ah_osdep.?; it was mistakenly given a
restricted license and not a dual-bsd/gpl license
o remove the module api definition as it was never used
o fixup include paths for move of ah_osdep.h

o define HAL_SOFTC, HAL_BUS_TAG, and HAL_BUS_HANDLE to be machine
independent; this fixes portability issues with bsd systems
o add ah_disable api for turning off operation of both MAC and PHY
o add ah_getAntennaSwitch and ah_setAntennaSwitch api's for better control
of antenna usage and diversity
o add ah_setAckCTSRate and ah_setAckCTSRate for controlling tx rate of
h/w generated frames
o add ah_setBeaconTimers api for simpler setting of the beacon timer registers
o remove ah_waitForBeaconDone api
o add HAL_TXDESC_DURENA flag to enable h/w duration setting in tx descriptor
o correct documentation of min/max tx power units (.5 dBm)
o switch arm, mips, and powerpc builds to use functions for register
read/write operations
o fix sparc builds to not reference %g2 and %g3 registers

- Change iso88025_ifattach() and fddi_ifattach() to accept MAC

IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

causes a trap on ia64. Intel may fix this differently in a subsequent
