444b91868b Make the newbus subsystem Giant free by adding the new newbus sxlock.
The newbus lock is responsible for protecting newbus internIal structures,
device states and devclass flags. It is necessary to hold it when all
such datas are accessed. For the other operations, softc locking should
ensure enough protection to avoid races.

Newbus lock is automatically held when virtual operations on the device
and bus are invoked when loading the driver or when the suspend/resume
take place. For other 'spourious' operations trying to access/modify
the newbus topology, newbus lock needs to be automatically acquired and
dropped.

For the moment Giant is also acquired in some key point (modules subsystem)
in order to avoid problems before the 8.0 release as module handlers could
make assumptions about it. This Giant locking should go just after
the release happens.

Please keep in mind that the public interface can be expanded in order
to provide more support, if there are really necessities at some point
and also some bugs could arise as long as the patch needs a bit of
further testing.

Bump __FreeBSD_version in order to reflect the newbus lock introduction.

2f4afd2125 Adds support for SCTP checksum offload. This means
we, like TCP and UDP, move the checksum calculation
into the IP routines when there is no hardware support
we call into the normal SCTP checksum routine.

The next round of SCTP updates will use
this functionality. Of course the IGB driver needs
a few updates to support the new intel controller set
that actually does SCTP csum offload too.
