interface is fairly simple WRT dealing with flow control, but
needed 2 new RX buffer functions with "get-char-from-buf" separated
from "advance-buf-pointer" so that the pointer could be advanced
only when ttydisc_rint() succeeded.

The EHCI HW can use the qtd_next field instead of qtd_altnext when a short
packet is received. This contradicts what is stated in the EHCI datasheet.
Also the total-bytes field in the status field of the following TD gets
corrupted upon reception of a short packet! We work this around in software by
not queueing more than one job/TD at a time of up to 16Kbytes! The bug has been
seen on multiple INTEL based EHCI chips. Other vendors have not been tested
yet.
- Applications using /dev/usb/X.Y.Z, where Z is non-zero are affected, but not
applications using LibUSB v0.1, v1.2 and v2.0.
- Mass Storage (umass) is affected.

sysctl lock. The 'video' lock now protects the 'bus' of video output
devices attached to a graphics adapter. It is used when iterating over
the list of outputs, etc. The 'video_output' lock is used to lock the
output-specific data similar to a driver lock for the individual video
outputs.

1) Restore the PCI Express control register after a watchdog
reset. This is required because the device will come out
of watchdog reset with the pectl reg at its default state,
and important BIOS configuration (like max payload size)
could be lost.
2) Call mxge_start_locked() for every tx queue before dropping
the lock in the watchdog handler. This is required, as
the queue's buf ring may have filled during the reset.

capability to mii(4). Even though AR8132 uses the same model/
revision number of F1 gigabit PHY, the PHY has no ability to
establish 1000baseT link. I have no idea why Atheros use the same
device/model id for this PHY.
With this change atphy(4) does not report 1000baseT media
capability and manual 1000baseT configuration is also disabled
which is more desirable behavior for 10/100Mbps PHY.
Unlike most other PHYs there is no easy way to know which media
type the PHY supports on Marvell PHYs. MIIF_HAVEFIBER flags is now
passed via bus-specific instance variable of a device. While I'm
here add 88E1112 specific work around to set SIGDET polarity low.

- clean up USB detach logic. There seems to be some problems detaching multiple
USB HUBs connected in series from the root.
- after this patch the rule is:
1) Always use device_detach() on the USB HUB first.
2) Never just device_delete_child() on the USB HUB, because that function
will traverse to all the device leaves and free them first, and then the USB
stack will free the devices twice which doesn't work very well.
- make sure the did DMA delay gets set after the timeout has elapsed to make
logic more clear. There is no functional difference.

Right now if applications want to use the mouse on the command line,
they use sysmouse(4) and install a signal handler in the kernel to
deliver signals when mouse events arrive. This conflicts with my plan to
change to TERM=xterm, so implement proper VT200-style mouse input.
Because mouse input is now streamed through the TTY, it means you can
now SSH to another system on the console and use the mouse there as
well. The disadvantage of the VT200 mouse protocol, is that it doesn't
seem to generate events when moving the cursor. Only when pressing and
releasing mouse buttons.
There are different protocols as well, but this one seems to be most
commonly supported.

It is quite inconvenient that if an application for xterm uses 256 color
mode, text suddenly starts to blink (because of ;5; in the middle).
We'd better just implement 256 color mode and add a conversion routine
from 256 to 8 color mode, which doesn't seem to be too bad in practice.
Remapping colors is done quite simple. If one of the channels is most
actively represented, primary colors are used. If two channels are most
actively represented, secondary colors are used. If all three channels
are equal (gray), it picks between black and white.

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.
