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;
some less so.

of unneccessary casts that could hide such things in the future.
Approved by: re
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.

connections that are currently closing are deleted from the connection
table. When the interface is configured up, all connections that
are in the table are re-opened.
bus_dma_tag_create. We need to be sure that our packets are
kept in-sequence (that's how ATM is supposed to work) and
therefor use BUS_DMA_NOWAIT in all calls to bus_dmamap_load.
For memory allocated with bus_dmamem_alloc the use of anything
other than NULL arguments for the locking is anyway bogus because
this memory never should need bouncing and hence the load should never
be defered.
Allow the receipt of OAM and RM cells on raw connections. Caveat: it seems
that RM cells are still processed by the hardware even when we open the
connection as UBR.
