control the antenna control bits for the four TX series and the
TPC settings for TX series 1, 2, 3.
The specifics:
* The TPC setting for TX series 0 is handled in ctl0.
* TPC is currently disabled, so the per-packet TX power is
set via the global per-rate TX power register, not per packet.
* The antenna control bits don't matter for AR5416 and later
so they should stay 0 (which they currently do); they may
be set for Kite but as there's no TX diversity supported
at the moment (it requires the NIC to be built with an
external antenna switch, matching how antenna diversity
is done on legacy NICs), so again keep them 0.
This is in preparation for supporting per-rate TPC on the
AR5416 and later. The Kite (and soon to come Kiwi) code
sets ctl8-11 to 0x0, which doesn't have any effect at
the moment. When TPC is enabled it would result in the
second, third and fourth TX series attmpts to be done with
a TX power of 0. This commit doesn't change that; it'll
be followed up with some commits to properly set the TPC
registers appropriately.

these bits resulted in unexpected results such as corrupted RX

Yukon EC it had no effect but it caused all kind of troubles on
Yukon Supreme.
This change shall improve stability of controllers like Yukon
Ultra, Ultra2, Extreme, Optima and Supreme.
Rewrite atomic operations for powerpc in order to achieve the following:
- Produce a type-clean implementation (in terms of functions arguments
and returned values) for the primitives.
- Fix errors with _long() atomics where they ended up with the wrong
arguments to be accepted.
- Follow the sys/type.h specifics that define the numbered types starting
from standard C types.
- Let _ptr() version to not auto-magically cast arguments, but leave
the burden on callers, as _ptr() atomic is intended to be used
relatively rarely.

not true on old PCI based controllers. DAC configuration is read
from EEPROM in device reset phase and driver can override DAC
configuration. However I guess there is an undocumented reason why
EEPROM configuration does not enable DAC so do not blindly override
DAC configuration. Recent PCIe based controllers are supposed to
support 64bit DMA so allow 64bit DMA only on PCIe based controllers.

This brings USB bus more in line with how newbus is supposed to be used.
Also, because of the two-pass probing the following message was produced
by devd in default configuration when almost any USB device was
connected:
Unknown USB device: vendor <> product <> bus <>
This should be fixed now.
Note that many USB device drivers pass some information from probe
method to attach method via ivars. For this to continue working we rely
on the fact that the subr_bus code calls probe method of a winning driver
again before calling its attach method in the case where multiple
drivers claim to support a device. This is done because device
description is set in successful probe methods and we want to get a correct
device description from a winning driver. So now this logic is re-used
for setting ivars too.

When supported by hardware, this allows to control per-port activity, locate
and fault LEDs via the led(4) API for localization and status reporting
purposes. Supporting AHCI controllers may transmit that information to the
backplane controllers via SGPIO interface. Backplane controllers interpret
received statuses in some way (IBPI standard) to report them using present
indicators.

The general HAL routine ath_hal_getcapability() implement checking this
but it's overridden by a check in ar5212_misc:ar5212GetCapability().
This restores the later functionality in case it's found to be broken
in any of the 11n chipsets.
The other queues, especially the command queue, uses the FIFO mode
which doesn't require the byte count table because queued entries are

Since the returned NF will be -ve, checking for <= 0 is not good
enough. For now, check whether it equals 0 or -1; a future commit
will tidy this mess up and have it return HAL_BOOL instead.
The eeprom Get method should return HAL_OK if fastclock is enabled in the
EEPROM. It was returning the opposite of what it should have.

The code assumed it could return HAL_OK, HAL_EINVAL and other
HAL_STATUS types; so it shouldn't be declared as returning HAL_BOOL.

I've tested this locally and it does indeed read and attach to an AR9287
EEPROM. But a lot more code needs to be ported over to the HAL before
the AR9287 is functional.
I'm importing this separate from the rest of the codebase (and unlinked from
the build for now) in case someone wishes to begin fiddling with porting
the rest of the code over from Linux ath9k.

The Atheros HAL code does this for Sowl/Howl but not for Owl (AR5416) where
RIFS is disabled by default.
This seems to quieten the occasional baseband hang I've been seeing with
