5b249744bd Initial attempt at newbusification of the specialix si/xio/sx driver.
The files were repo copied from their original location and are part
way towards being portable.
This should unbreak the EISA support in the driver.
I have not updated files* yet as I'm not quite finished.

9bc318bff0 SX ISA cards are only 32k wide in 8 bit mode (which is the only
mode supported by the manufacturer).

e93eb8a353 Several changes:
- Implement proper EISA probing.
 - Better support for the new transputer based host cards.
 - use standard termios settings, one can use the intial/lock devices.
 - use a simple bcopy since some cards/systems apparently don't support
   32 bit accesses.
 - hard reset and halt host card CPU prior to download in case of a soft
   restart.
 - recognize new remote module types (ASIC vs. CD1400 based)
 - a number of cosmetic changes (my fault, not Nick's)

6875d25465 Back out part 1 of the MCFH that changed $Id$ to $FreeBSD$. We are not
ready for it yet.

1130b656e5 Make the long-awaited change from $Id$ to $FreeBSD$
This will make a number of things easier in the future, as well as (finally!)
avoiding the Id-smashing problem which has plagued developers for so long.

Boy, I'm glad we're not using sup anymore.  This update would have been
insane otherwise.

070fc2ce12 Mainly cosmetic cleanups... It now uses more consistant message reporting
on the console, and no longer uses "SLXOS" which I suspect may be a
trademark... (I'm not sure, but this is not really a SLXOS driver anyway)

b77990be3e Bring in my long-overdue version of the Specialix driver.
This was originally ported to BSDI by Andy Rutter <andy@acronym.co.uk>.
At the end of the day, this code has very little in common with Andy's
version, or the Specialix SYSV version.  Essentially it has been gradually
and almost completely rewritten, with LOTS of advice and inspiration from
Bruce Evans.  There are a couple of missing bits still, but they are minor.

The user-mode "sicontrol" program is in sad shape and will come in soon.
Transparent printing died a timely death.. Maybe later..

Jeremy Rolls @ Specialix (Development directory) has confirmed this is OK
to distribute, and Andy personally sent me his version that I started from.

Although this driver stood up to a nasty stress-test in this form, I am not
confident that there are no nasty bugs lurking.

People are welcome to try it, but dont go out and buy one just yet.. :-)
And *DONT* use it on a mission-critical machine... This is ALPHA QUALITY!
