timecounter to 1, and correspondingly increase the precision of the
gettimeofday(2) and related functions in the default configuration.
The motivation for the TSC-low timecounter, as described in the
r222866, seems to provide a workaround for the non-serializing
behaviour of the RDTSC on some Intel hardware. Tests demonstrate that
even with the pre-shift of 8, the cross-core non-monotonicity of the
RDTSC is still observed reliably, e.g. on the Nehalems. The r238755
and r238973 implemented the proper fix for the issue.
The pre-shift of 1 is applied to keep TSC not overflowing for the
frequency of hardclock down to 2 sec/intr. The pre-shift is made a
tunable to allow the easy debugging of the issues users could see with
the shift being too low.

The current behavior of advertising a single MSI vector can be requested by

is not compliant with the virtio specification and will be eventually phased
out.

that were causing the runtime and STL libraries to see different versions of
various classes and functions when libstdc++ is used as a filter.
Note: This changes the ABI for libcxxrt, but libcxxrt is currently only in
-STABLE for testing and is not used by anything unless explicitly enabled by
the end user. No default compiler configurations use it.
libc++ will need to be recompiled after this change. make buildworld will do
this automatically, but make in lib/libc++ will not necessarily work unless the
new libcxxrt is installed first.

bug in old versions of QEMU (and Xen, and other places using QEMU code).
On those buggy emulated UARTs, the "TX idle" interrupt gets lost; with
this workaround, we spinwait for the TX to happen and then send ourselves
the interrupt. It's ugly but it works, while minimizing the impact on
the code for the !broken_txfifo case.

media has one already, copy it in lieu of leaving things blank. This
reduces the foot-shooting potential for PXE installs that immediately
add packages.
In all the routines that loop through a range of virtual addresses, the loop
is controlled by subtracting the cache line size from the total length of the
request. After the subtract, a 'bpl' instruction was used, which branches if
the result of the subtraction is zero or greater, but we need to exit the
loop when the count hits zero. Thus, all the bpl instructions in those loops
have been changed to 'bhi' (branch if greater than zero).
In addition, the two routines that walk through the cache using set-and-index
were correct, but confusing. The loop control for those has been simplified,
just so that it's easier to see by examination that the code is correct.
Routines for other arm architectures and generations still have the bpl
instruction, but compensate for the off-by-one situation by decrementing
the count register by one before entering the loop.
