1. Read data from good component for synchronization.
2. Write data to the same area.
3. Write synchronization data, which are now stale.

on anything but DEVFS and in this case it was not even used (see below).
Put the NFS4 vop method for fifo's behind "#if 0" because it is unused.
Add a XXX comment to say that I think the unusedness is a bug.
for the new thread. The rest of the fields in the pcb wind up being
written to before they're read as a normal part of the pcb usage but
this field may be read upon return to userland, having it be uninitialized
garbage is bad.

This closes the last (known) race issues in ATA which should fix
the various hangs etc seen on heavy loaded systems.
Change from using timeout functions to using callout functions in
the timeout code. This together with above closes the race that could
happen if timeout and device interrupt occured simultaniously.
Also fix the possible recursion in ata_reinit() on very dodgy
devices that could take us down in the probe.
the trapframe via kdb_frame, but kdb_frame was not initialized until
after the call to kdb_cpu_trap(). Ergo: kdb_cpu_trap() was moved too
far up.

the mbuf due to use of m_pulldown. Discarding the result because of this
does not make sense as no subsequent code depends on the entire msg being
linearized (only the individual pieces). It's likely something else is wrong
here but for now this appears to get things back to a working state.

I have from Broadcom does not give much information on these devices,
so the Broadcom Linux driver was used for clues to what these chips
support. It turns out they are similar to the 5705 with the 5751
being the PCI-Express version and needing special work-arounds and
settings.
Use kthread_exit() instead of falling through the end of the worker
thread's main function. Since kthread_exit() wakeup(9)s everyone
sleeping on the thread handle, drop the superfluous wakeup() call.
When net.inet.ip.check_interface was MFCed to RELENG_4 3+ years ago in
rev. 1.130.2.17 ip_input.c it was 1 by default but shortly changed to
0 (accidently?) in rev. 1.130.2.20 in RELENG_4 only. Among with the
fact this knob is not documented it breaks POLA especially in bridge
environment.

frobbing the cdevsw.
In both cases we examine only the cdevsw and it is a good question if we
weren't better off copying those properties into the cdev in the first
place. This question will be revisited.
