This is used by the 'athsurvey' command to print out channel survey
statistics - % busy times transmit, receive and airtime.
It's as buggy and incomplete as the rest of the HAL survey support -
notably, tying into the ANI code to read channel stats and occasionally
getting garbage counters isn't very nice. It also doesn't (yet!) get
channel survey information during a scan. But it's good enough for
basic air-time debugging, which is why I'm committing it in this state.

I don't like having it in this function; I may migrate it to ar9300_freebsd.c
at some point to keep the HAL code pollution down.
This allows ANI to be disabled via a sysctl.
Tested:
* AR9331, STA/TDMA modes
This is a custom FreeBSD HAL method that is used by the TDMA code
to program the beacon timers directly without any guesswork/assumptions
by the HAL.
This brings up basic TDMA master/slave support on the AR9380 HAL,
however there are other issues preventing it from being stable.
(I'm seeing beacon interval instability, which may be due to
busy 2GHz air, but also may be due to some HAL configuration
issues with regards to ANI, or hardware timer programming, etc.)
Tested:
* AR9331 (Carambola2), STA, AP, adhoc and TDMA master mode.
The QCA9565 can have RFKILL on GPIO Pin 11, and thus we need to configure
it up correctly or the NIC may not function.
I'm not sure why the AR9382 can't use GPIO 8 / GPIO 11 ; it's likely
hooked up to some external LNA or filter. The real solution is to
make it only block pin 8 / pin 11 for AR9382, but the AR9382 probes
like an AR9380. Sigh.

hw.x2apic_enable tunable allows disabling it from the loader prompt.
To closely repeat effects of the uncached memory ops when accessing
registers in the xAPIC mode, the x2APIC writes to MSRs are preceeded
by mfence, except for the EOI notifications. This is probably too
strict, only ICR writes to send IPI require serialization to ensure
that other CPUs see the previous actions when IPI is delivered. This
may be changed later.
In vmm justreturn IPI handler, call doreti_iret instead of doing iretd
inline, to handle corner conditions.
Note that the patch only switches LAPICs into x2APIC mode. It does not
enables FreeBSD to support > 255 CPUs, which requires parsing x2APIC

socket-buffer implementations, introduce a return value for MCLGET()
(and m_cljget() that underlies it) to allow the caller to avoid testing
M_EXT itself. Update all callers to use the return value.
With this change, very few network device drivers remain aware of
M_EXT; the primary exceptions lie in mbuf-chain pretty printers for
debugging, and in a few cases, custom mbuf and cluster allocation
implementations.
NB: This is a difficult-to-test change as it touches many drivers for
which I don't have physical devices. Instead we've gone for intensive
review, but further post-commit review would definitely be appreciated
to spot errors where changes could not easily be made mechanically,
but were largely mechanical in nature.

These variants have a few differences from the default AR9485 NIC,
namely:
* a non-default antenna switch config;
* slightly different RX gain table setup;
* an external XLNA hooked up to a GPIO pin;
* (and not yet done) RSSI threshold differences when
doing slow diversity.
To make this possible:
* Add the PCI device list from Linux ath9k, complete with vendor and
sub-vendor IDs for various things to be enabled;
* .. and until FreeBSD learns about a PCI device list like this,
write a search function inspired by the USB device enumeration code;
* add HAL_OPS_CONFIG to the HAL attach methods; the HAL can use this
to initialise its local driver parameters upon attach;
* copy these parameters over in the AR9300 HAL;
* don't default to override the antenna switch - only do it for
the chips that require it;
* I brought over ar9300_attenuation_apply() from ath9k which is cleaner
and easier to read for this particular NIC.
This is a work in progress. I'm worried that there's some post-AR9380
NIC out there which doesn't work without the antenna override set as
I currently haven't implemented bluetooth coexistence for the AR9380
and later HAL. But I'd rather have this code in the tree and fix it
up before 11.0-RELEASE happens versus having a set of newer NICs
in laptops be effectively RX deaf.

If powersave is enabled and there are any transitions to network
or full sleep - even if they're pretty damned brief - eventually
something messes up somewhere and the bus glue between the AR9331
SoC and the AR9331 wifi stops working. It shows up as stuck DMA
and LOCAL_TIMEOUT interrupts.
Both ath9k and the reference driver does a full chip reset if things
get stuck.
So:
* teach the AR9330 HAL about the force_full_reset option I added a
couple of years ago;
* if the chip is currently in full-sleep, do a full-reset;
* if TX DMA and/or RX DMA are still enabled (eg, they did get
stuck during reset) then do a full-reset.
