Provide thermal management and monitoring features in smu(4). This allows
fan control and thermal monitoring on SMU-based Apple G5 machines, as well
as an led(4) interface to control the sleep LED.
Add support for a few more Sony-specific ACPI features (default display
brightness, wired LAN power and bass gain), and update the description of
one previously unknown feature (display contrast). While here, expand on
a comment and remove two defines left over from an old version of the code.
Also update man page to document the above changes, and correct grammar.

framebuffer driver, etc. work on FreeBSD/amd64.
A significant amount of improvements were done by jkim@ during the recent
months to make vesa(4) work better, over the initial code import. This
work is based on OpenBSD's x86emu implementation and contributed by
paradox <ddkprog yahoo com> and swell.k at gmail com.
Hopefully I have stolen all their work to 8-STABLE :)
All bugs in this commit are mine, as usual.
Add interface description capability as inspired by OpenBSD. Thanks for
rwatson@, jhb@, brooks@ and others for feedback to the old implementation!

Install the padlock(4) man page on amd64 as well as i386, to match the
platforms where the driver itself is compiled and installed.

Add a driver by Fredrik Lindberg for Option HSDPA USB devices. These differ
from standard 3G wireless units by supplying a raw IP/IPv6 endpoint rather than
using PPP over serial. uhsoctl(1) is used to initiate and close the WAN
connection.

Document more VIA Velocity family controllers to vge(4). Previously
it mentioned only VT6122. While I'm here remove the mention of
VT3119 which seems to be VIA's internal model name and VT3119
wouldn't be available to end users.

- Add support for new BGE chips (5761, 5784 and 57780). These chips uses new
BGE_PCI_PRODID_ASICREV register to store the chip identifier and its revision.
- Add new grouping macro for 7575+ chips (BGE_IS_5755_PLUS).
- Add IDs for Fujitsu-branded Broadcom adapters.
lindev(4) [1] is supposed to be a collection of linux-specific pseudo
devices that we also support, just not by default (thus only LINT or
module builds by default).
While currently there is only "/dev/full" [2], we are planning to see more
in the future. We may decide to change the module/dependency logic in the
future should the list grow too long.
This is not part of linux.ko as also non-linux binaries like kFreeBSD
userland or ports can make use of this as well.

Introduce hw.hptrr.attach_generic loader tunable to deny hptrr driver
attach chips with generic Marvell (non-HighPoint) PCI identification.
These chips are also supported by ata(4). Some vendors, like Supermicro,
are using same chips without providing HPT RAID BIOS.
