of OFW access semantics, in order to allow future support for real-mode
OF access and flattened device frees. OF client interface modules are
implemented using KOBJ, in a similar way to the PPC PMAP modules.
Because we need Open Firmware to be available before mutexes can be used on
sparc64, changes are also included to allow KOBJ to be used very early in
the boot process by only using the mutex once we know it has been initialized.

identifiers, to openfirmio.h as OFIOCMAXNAME, so programs can use it
for buffer sizes etc.
Note: Although this is only a rough upper limit to make the code more
robust and to prevent the allocation of ridiculous amounts of memory,
the current limit of one page (8191 + '\0' in openfirm_getstr()) still
appears a bit high. The maximum length of OFW property names is 31.
I didn't find a maximum length for the device identifiers in the OFW
documentation but it certainly is much smaller than 8191, too.
- Enable the OFIOCSET ioctl, i.e. move it out from under #if 0.
- Don't use openfirm_getstr() for the property value in OFIOCSET, there
are also properties whose values aren't strings and it makes sense to
use a different maximum length for property values than OFW_NAME_MAX/
OFIOCMAXNAME. The maximum accepted property value is defined in
openfirmio.h as OFIOCMAXVALUE (currently the maximum size of the value
of the nvramrc property).
- Make OFIOCSET not return EINVAL when OF_setprop() returns a different
length for the written value than it was told to write, this is normal
for the text string values of the properties in the OFW /options node.
Instead, only return EINVAL if OF_setprop() returned -1 (value could
not be written or property could not be created). Add a comment about
the specialty of the OFW /options node.
- Make OFIOCSET return the length of the written value returned by
OF_setprop(), just like OF_getprop() does. Quite useful, at least for
debugging.

Introduce d_version field in struct cdevsw, this must always be
initialized to D_VERSION.
Flip sense of D_NOGIANT flag to D_NEEDGIANT, this involves removing
four D_NOGIANT flags and adding 145 D_NEEDGIANT flags.
provide no methods does not make any sense, and is not used by any
driver.
It is a pretty hard to come up with even a theoretical concept of
a device driver which would always fail open and close with ENODEV.
Change the defaults to be nullopen() and nullclose() which simply
does nothing.
Remove explicit initializations to these from the drivers which
already used them.
branches:
Initialize struct cdevsw using C99 sparse initializtion and remove
all initializations to default values.
This patch is automatically generated and has been tested by compiling
LINT with all the fields in struct cdevsw in reverse order on alpha,
sparc64 and i386.
