The tag enforces a single restriction that all DMA transactions must not
cross a 4GB boundary. Note that while this restriction technically only
applies to PCI-express, this change applies it to all PCI devices as it
is simpler to implement that way and errs on the side of caution.
- Add a softc structure for PCI bus devices to hold the bus_dma tag and
a new pci_attach_common() routine that performs actions common to the
attach phase of all PCI bus drivers. Right now this only consists of
a bootverbose printf and the allocate of a bus_dma tag if necessary.
- Adjust all PCI bus drivers to allocate a PCI bus softc and to call
pci_attach_common() from their attach routines.

long for specifying a boundary constraint.
- Change bus_dma tags to use bus_addr_t instead of bus_size_t for boundary
constraints.
These allow boundary constraints to be fully expressed for cases where
sizeof(bus_addr_t) != sizeof(bus_size_t). Specifically, it allows a
driver to properly specify a 4GB boundary in a PAE kernel.
Note that this cannot be safely MFC'd without a lot of compat shims due
to KBI changes, so I do not intend to merge it.

profiling and kernel profiling. To enable kernel profiling one has to build
kgmon(8). I will enable the build once I managed to build and test powerpc
(32-bit) kernels with profiling support.
- add a powerpc64 PROF_PROLOGUE for _mcount.
- add macros to avoid adding the PROF_PROLOGUE in certain assembly entries.
- apply these macros where needed.
- add size information to the MCOUNT function.

inspection of the output of a cross-compiler indicates that this isn't the

possible, and double faults within an SLB trap handler are not. The result
is that it possible to take an SLB fault at any time, on any address, for
any reason, at any point in the kernel.
This lets us do two important things. First, it removes the (soft) 16 GB RAM
ceiling on PPC64 as well as any architectural limitations on KVA space.
Second, it lets the kernel tolerate poorly designed hypervisors that
have a tendency to fail to restore the SLB properly after a hypervisor
context switch.

At the moment grab and ungrab methods of all console drivers are no-ops.
Current intended meaning of the calls is that the kernel takes control of
console input. In the future the semantics may be extended to mean that
the calling thread takes full ownership of the console (e.g. console
output from other threads could be suspended).

According to the open firmware standard, finddevice call has to return
a phandle with value of -1 in case of error.
This commit is to:
- Fix the FDT implementation of this interface (ofw_fdt_finddevice) to
return (phandle_t)-1 in case of error, instead of 0 as it does now.
- Fix up the callers of OF_finddevice() to compare the return value with
-1 instead of 0 to check for errors.
- Since phandle_t is unsigned, the return value of OF_finddevice should
be checked with '== -1' rather than '<= 0' or '> 0', fix up these cases
as well.

This assumption is invalid and the code should be fixed, but humor it for
now and set the "IPI" for PS3s in the non-SMP case to a large number. This
fixes boot with a non-SMP kernel.
