- Don't abuse module names to facilitate ifconfig module loading;
such abuse isn't really needed. (And if we do need type information
associated with a module then we should make it explicit and not
use hacks.)
o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)
o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.)
o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

Also, move towards bus space by introducing new macros/inline
functions which make such a move much easier than before.
These inline functions are setup now to work around an IBM EtherJet
pccard cardbus bridge incompatibility. The card works in 8 bit mode,
but not in 16-bit mode when it is connected to a cardbus bridge for
reasons unknown. The Linux driver also has a similar workaround in
it.
Future work will include making the above workaround runtime
conditional rather than compile time conditional, as well as fixing
the interrupts in pccards and converting it to bus space.

I plan on MFC this in a week or two.

The former consolidates the operations of if_attach(), ng_ether_attach(),
and bpfattach(). The latter consolidates the corresponding detach operations.

Also, remove the (incomplete) hack for matching ethernet headers
in the ip_fw code.
The good news: net result of 1016 lines removed, and this should make
bridging now work with *all* Ethernet drivers.
The bad news: it's nearly impossible to test every driver, especially
for bridging, and I was unable to get much testing help on the mailing
lists.

This means that we will not have to have a bpf and a non-bpf version
of our driver modules.
This does not open any security hole, because the bpf core isn't loadable
The drivers left unchanged are the "cross platform" drivers where the respective
maintainers are urged to DTRT, whatever that may be.
Add a couple of missing FreeBSD tags.
i386 platform boots, it is no longer ISA-centric, and is fully dynamic.
Most old drivers compile and run without modification via 'compatability
shims' to enable a smoother transition. eisa, isapnp and pccard* are
not yet using the new resource manager. Once fully converted, all drivers
will be loadable, including PCI and ISA.

ATA driver to the Alpha. Soren, back this out if you need to.)
This is a checkpoint of work-in-progress, but is quite functional.

reported bug.
At using tcpdump for cs interface, tcpdump only dump packet which
src or dst MAC-address is cs interface. cs interface can't look up
packet between others.

Add a sysctl 'machdep.cs_recv_delay' to specify how long to wait after
receiving a packet in order to check for a subsequent (back-to-back)
packet. The cs8900 has a very small receive buffer, so this helps avoid
overflows at the cost of some extra CPU overhead.
