Add a -n flag to ndiscvt to allow the user to override the default
device name of NDIS devices. Instead of "ndis0, ndis1, etc..."
you can have "foo0, foo1, etc..." This allows you to have more than
one kind of NDIS device in the kernel at the same time.
Convert from printf() to device_printf() in if_ndis.c, kern_ndis.c
and subr_ndis.c.
Create UMA zones for ndis_packet and ndis_buffer structs allocated
on transmit. The zones are created and destroyed in the modevent
handler in kern_ndis.c.

that case, don't display error message when -f flag is used.

DELAY(1) instead. After wading through old commit logs, I found that the
outb() was added not as part of the test but as an intentional delay. In
fact, according to Shanley's PCI book, the configuration 1 data and address
ports should only be accessed using aligned 32-bit accesses (i.e. inl()
and outl()). Thus, using outb() to just the last byte of the port violates
the PCI spec it would seem. On at least one box doing so broke the probe
for PCI, whereas changing it to a DELAY(1) fixed the probe.

peter and jhb: use __volatile__ to prevent gcc from possibly reordering
code, use a null inline instruction instead of a no-op movl (I would
have done this myself if I knew it was allowed) and combine two register
assignments into a single asm statement.
- if_ndis.c: set the NDIS_STATUS_PENDING flag on all outgoing packets
in ndis_start(), make the resource allocation code a little smarter
about how it selects the altmem range, correct a lock order reversal
in ndis_tick().
vm object hasn't changed, the desired page will be at or near the root
of the vm object's splay tree, making vm_page_lookup() cheap. (The only
lock required for vm_page_lookup() is already held.) If, however, the
vm object has changed and retry was requested, eliminating the generation
check also eliminates a pointless acquisition and release of the page
queues lock.

created when the driver's send routine immediately calls the txeof
handler (which releases the packets for us anyway).
