- Add per-controller configuration (sx) and I/O (mutex) locks. The
configuration lock protects the relationship of volumes and drives
while the I/O lock protects access to the controller's registers and
the main I/O path.
- Remove some checks for M_WAITOK malloc()'s failing.
- Remove the explicit bus space tag/handle from the softc and use
bus_*() rather than bus_space_*().
- Reuse the existing new-bus sysctl context instead of creating a
new one.
- Remove compat shims for FreeBSD 4.x.
- Use pci_enable_busmaster() rather than doing it by hand, and rely
on bus_alloc_resource() to enable PCI I/O decoding.

issues which they found and asked to be changed so 3ware can offcially
support the driver.
Summary of the most significant changes:
- TWE_OVERRIDE is no longer supported
- If twe_getparam failed, bogus data would be returned to the caller
- Cache the device unit in the twe_drive structure to aid debugging
- Add the 3ware driver version.
- Proper return error codes for many functions.
- Track the minimum queue length statistics
- 4.x compat: use the cached unit number from the twe_drive structure
instead of the the cached si_drv2. 3ware found that after many loads
and unloads that si_drv2 became corrupted. This did not happen in
-current.

- Build SGL's for ATA_PASSTHROUGH commands
- Fallback to using the sgl_offset when the opcode is unknown for building
SGL's/
- Add ioctl calls for adding and removing units.
- Define previously undefined AEN's
- Allocate memory for the ioctl payload in multiples of 512bytes.

in geom_disk.c.
As a side effect this makes a lot of #include <sys/devicestat.h>
lines not needed and some biofinish() calls can be reduced to
biodone() again.
- Rework of twe_report_request to use the command status value rather
than the flags register. (Joel Jacobson @ 3ware)
- Update to match some changes in -current vs. stable.

- Layout reorganisation to enhance portability. The driver now has
a relatively MI 'core' and a FreeBSD-specific layer over the top.
Since the NetBSD people have already done their own port, this is
largely just to help me with the BSD/OS port.
- Request ID allocation changed to improve performance (I'd been
considering switching to this approach after having failed to come
up with a better way to dynamically allocate request IDs, and seeing
Andy Doran use it in the NetBSD port of the driver convinced me
that I was wasting my time doing it any other way). Now we just
allocate all the requests up front.
- Maximum request count bumped back to 255 after characterisation
of a firmware issue (off-by-one causing it to crash with 256
outstanding commands).
- Control interface implemented. This allows 3ware's '3dm' utility to
talk to the controller. 3dm will be available from 3ware shortly.
- Controller soft-reset feature added; if the controller signals a
firmware or protocol error, the controller will be reset and all
outstanding commands will be retried.
