Use MACHINE_CPUARCH in preference to MACHINE_ARCH. The former is the
source code location of the machine, the latter the binary output. In
general, we want to use MACHINE_CPUARCH instead of MACHINE_ARCH unless
we're tesitng for a specific target. The isn't even moot for
i386/amd64 where there's momemntum towards a MACHINE_CPUARCH == x86,
although a specific cleanup for that likely would be needed...
builds had been succeeding if run serially but could fail if run in
parallel because the bge module build might start before ofw_bus_if.h
got created as part of the mainline kernel build.

a problem with one particular switch module. Create a kernel option
BGE_FAKE_AUTONEG that restores the 5.4 behavior, which should make the DNLK
switch module work. IBM/Intel blades with Intel or AD switch modules should
work without patching or kernel options with this commit.

ethernet controllers. This adds support for the 3Com 3c996-T, the
SysKonnect SK-9D21 and SK-9D41, and the built-in gigE NICs on
Dell PowerEdge 2550 servers. The latter configuration hauls ass:
preliminary measurements show TCP speeds of over 900Mbps using
only normal size frames.
TCP/IP checksum offload, jumbo frames and VLAN tag insertion/stripping
are supported, as well as interrupt moderation.
Still need to fix autonegotiation support for 1000baseSX NICs, but
beyond that, driver is pretty solid.
