the intr_disable function pointer in struct cphy_ops in cxgb(4).
Instead define intr_disable and intr_restore as inline functions.
With intr_disable() an inline function, the I32_bit and F32_bit
macros now need to be visible in MI code and given the rather
poor names, this is not at all good. Define ARM_CPSR_F32 and
ARM_CPSR_I32 and use that instead of F32_bit and I32_bit (resp)
for now.
The copies of initarm used on platforms with FDT support were almost
identical. The differences were pulled out into separate functions that
were called by initarm.
This change merges the, now identical, copies of initarm and a few of it's
support functions. This is a step towards a common kernel on ARMv6.
this some compilers will place a cmp instruction before the atomic operation
and expect to be able to use the result afterwards. By adding "cc" to the
list of used registers we tell the compiler to not do this.
problematic because some callers to pmap_kextract() expect its
implementation to be lock-less. In particular, uma_dbg_alloc() implicitly
requires this. Otherwise, lock-order reversals occur between pmap locks and
UMA zone locks. So, this change introduces a lock-less implementation of
pmap_kextract().
Disable recursion on the pvh global lock in the new armv6 pmap. While
recursion on this locks occurs in the old arm pmap, it thankfully doesn't
occur in the armv6 pmap.

On single core devices set_stackptrs is only ever called with cpu = 0 in
initarm and will be identical to the existing function. On SMP this needs
to be implemented for sys/arm/mp_machdep.c, but the implementations are
identical for each SoC.
MSI are implemented via software interrupt. PCIe cards will write
into software interrupt register which will cause inbound shared
interrupt which will be interpreted as a MSI.

This is required for ARM EABI. Section 7.1.1 of the Procedure Call for the
ARM Architecture (AAPCS) defines wchar_t as either an unsigned int or an
unsigned short with the former preferred.
Because of this requirement we need to move the definition of __wchar_t to
a machine dependent header. It also cleans up the macros defining the limits
of wchar_t by defining __WCHAR_MIN and __WCHAR_MAX in the same machine
dependent header then using them to define WCHAR_MIN and WCHAR_MAX
respectively.

usermode, using shared page. The structures and functions have vdso
prefix, to indicate the intended location of the code in some future.
The versioned per-algorithm data is exported in the format of struct
vdso_timehands, which mostly repeats the content of in-kernel struct
timehands. Usermode reading of the structure can be lockless.
Compatibility export for 32bit processes on 64bit host is also
provided. Kernel also provides usermode with indication about
currently used timecounter, so that libc can fall back to syscall if
configured timecounter is unknown to usermode code.
The shared data updates are initiated both from the tc_windup(), where
a fast task is queued to do the update, and from sysctl handlers which
change timecounter. A manual override switch
kern.timecounter.fast_gettime allows to turn off the mechanism.
Only x86 architectures export the real algorithm data, and there, only
for tsc timecounter. HPET counters page could be exported as well, but
I prefer to not further glue the kernel and libc ABI there until
proper vdso-based solution is developed.
Minimal stubs neccessary for non-x86 architectures to still compile
are provided.

pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in order to completely encapsulate all direct
access to PGA_WRITEABLE in the pmap layer.
Aesthetics aside, I am making this change because amd64 will likely begin
using an alternative method to track write mappings, and having
pmap_page_is_write_mapped() in place allows me to make such a change
without further modification to the MI VM layer.
As an added bonus, tidy up some nearby comments concerning page flags.

the boot arguments and converts them to the /boot/loader metadata the
rest of the kernel uses. parse_boot_param is a weak alias to
fake_preload_metadata, which all the platforms use now, but may become
more extensive in the future.
Since it is a weak symbol, specific boards may define their own
parse_boot_param to interface to custom boot loaders.

able to use some general checksum functions like in_addword()
in a non-IPv4 context, limit the (also exported to user space)

We should consider more general checksum (updating) functions
to also allow easier incremental checksum updates in the L3/4
stack and firewalls, as well as ponder further requirements by
certain NIC drivers needing slightly different pseudo values
in offloading cases. Thinking in terms of a better "library".

New kernel events can be added at various location for sampling or counting.
This will for example allow easy system profiling whatever the processor is
with known tools like pmcstat(8).
Simultaneous usage of software PMC and hardware PMC is possible, for example
looking at the lock acquire failure, page fault while sampling on
