Make serial ports more robust and reliable. Make non-console ports
work. This might have broken skyeye stuff.
o Introduce ping-pong receive buffers.
o Use DMA to copy characters directly into memory.
o Support baud rates other than 115200
o Use 1 stop bit when 1 stop bit is requested (otherwise 2 were used,
which caused dropped characters when received in bursts).
o Use 1.5 stop bits for 5-bit bytes, and 2 stop bits otherwise when 2
stop bits were requested.
o Actually update line parameters.
o Fix comments
o Move init into attach
o Tweaks to TX interrupt registers to get them reliable and non-storming.
o harvest data in ipend since the latency between it and the callback
was too long. This likely is how it should be, I don't know why I deferred
things to the callback before.
o disable all interrupts in console init. We don't want interrupts until
we turn on an ISR.
o cosmetic tweaks
o Automatically detect of the TIMEOUT interrupt is supported. If so, use
it so we get better CPU utilization. Otherwise do a character at a time
RX. Good news here is that it seems we have enough CPU and low enough
fast interrupt latency to do this reliably.
o Don't read USART_CR. It is a write-only register.
o start to implement bus_ioctl. Do BAUD now...
well as avoiding a switch statement. This change has no significant impact
to performance when branch prediction is successful at predicting the sizes
of objects passed to free(), but in the case that the object sizes are
semi-random, this change has the potential to prevent many branch prediction
misses, thus improving performance substantially.
Take advantage of alignment guarantees in ipalloc(), and pad object sizes to
something less than a power of two when possible. This has the potential
to substantially reduce internal fragmentation for objects allocated via
posix_memalign().
Avoid an unnecessary pow2_ceil() call in arena_ralloc().

the mbuf chain. If we ever get a buggy caller, a bogus "off" should
be caught by the sanity check at the function entry. Null "m" here
means a very unusual condition of a totally broken mbuf chain (wrong
m_pkthdr.len or whatever), so we can just page fault later.

tree... John Baldwin noted that sio might pass values between probe
and attach via softc. It appears that sio does leave the hardware in
a known state after probing, so other drivers that try to probe might
leave it in a worse state. It doesn't seem to pass any data in softc,
however, that I could find... I think we should not be probing for
anything but nonPnP isa, but that's a change for another day.

except in places dealing with ifaddr creation or destruction; and
in such special places incomplete ifaddrs should never be linked
to system-wide data structures. Therefore we can eliminate all the
superfluous checks for "ifa->ifa_addr != NULL" and get ready
to the system crashing honestly instead of masking possible bugs.

a local 'semid' variable which was the array index and used uap->semid
as the original IPC id. During the kern_semctl() conversion those two
variables were collapsed into a single 'semid' variable breaking the
places that needed the original IPC ID. To fix, add a new 'semidx'
variable to hold the array index and leave 'semid' unmolested as the IPC
id. While I'm here, explicitly document that the (undocumented, at least
in semctl(2)) SEM_STAT command curiously expects an array index in the
'semid' parameter rather than an IPC id.

Previously, another thread could get a pointer to the
interface by scanning the system-wide list and sleep
on the global vlan mutex held by vlan_unconfig().
The interface was gone by the time the other thread
woke up.
In order to be able to call vlan_unconfig() on a detached
interface, remove the purely cosmetic bzero'ing of IF_LLADDR
from the function because a detached interface has no addresses.
