control for all vr(4) controllers that support it. It's known that
old vr(4) controllers(Rhine II) does not support TX pause but Rhine
III supports both TX and RX pause.
Make TX pause really work on Rhine III by letting controller know
available RX buffers.

state variable instead of multiple state bits as input
for the USB statemachine to determine what to do in the
various parts of the code. No APIs towards USB device

the 16-bit cylinders field of the VTOC8 disk label (at around 502GB). The
geometry chosen for disks above that limit allows to use disks up to 2TB,
which is the limit of the extended VTOC8 format. The geometry used for
disks smaller than the 16-bit cylinders limit stays the same as used by
cam_calc_geometry(9) for extended translation.

compatible with each other and since r227539 the last issue seen when
using SCHED_ULE is fixed. At least on UP and 2-way machines SCHED_4BSD
still performs better than SCHED_ULE, however, the optimizations done
in r225889 pretty much compensate that so there's at least no net
regression.
Thanks go to Peter Jeremy for extensive testing.
