commit broke the world because it depended on namespace pollution that
was only in my version of <machine/bootinfo.h>. The include was removed
in rev.1.63 after the last reference to it went away in rev.1.61.
comment about this flag in rev.1.61. It is not historical like the
comment said; it is the flag that says that most of what is laboriously
put in the bootinfo struct is actually there. Newer kernels were
bootable by even the broken boot2 without losing anything except the
symbol table, but older kernels need at least the memory sizes.
Restoring the "|" with RB_BOOTINFO that was lost in rev.1.43 costs 5
bytes. The fix can be done in only 4 bytes by fixing some code that
was removed in rev.1.61 (put RB_BOOTINFO back in in the initial value
of "opts" and fix RBX_MASK to not clobber it.)
boot time. Instead, read it a sector at a time. While this sounds
like a significant slowdown, I've not been able to measure any
signficant difference.

bsd.lib.mk and thus broke the build since AFLAGS were not taken
into considered anymore, as bsd.lib.mk currently has wrong .s.o
rule that uses cc(1) instead of as(1).
Revision 1.14 reverted to using as(1), and revision 1.15 brought
AFLAGS back to the business, but revision 1.14 also broke "make
clean".
To fix this, but not break anything that was fixed in revisions
1.13-1.15, we revert mostly to revision 1.13 except for switching
back to using bsd.prog.mk. This gives us back the default .s.o
rule from sys.mk that uses as(1), and fixes "make clean" by
restoring the full contents of OBJS.
Also fixed LDFLAGS.
the terminating '\0'. Since the initialisation of rootpath in
libstand/bootp.c may copy junk into the rest of the buffer, it was
possible for the code to find a ':' after the '\0' and do the wrong
thing.

things over floppy size limits, I can exclude it for release builds or
something like that. Most of the changes are to get the load_elf.c file
into a seperate elf32_ or elf64_ namespace so that you can have two
ELF loaders present at once. Note that for 64 bit kernels, it actually
starts up the kernel already in 64 bit mode with paging enabled. This
is really easy because we have a known minimum feature set.
Of note is that for amd64, we have to pass in the bios int 15 0xe821
memory map because once in long mode, you absolutely cannot make VM86
calls. amd64 does not use 'struct bootinfo' at all. It is a pure loader
metadata startup, just like sparc64 and powerpc. Much of the
infrastructure to support this was adapted from sparc64.
* AcpiOsDerivePciId(): finds a bus number, given the slot/func and the
acpi parse tree.
* AcpiOsPredefinedOverride(): use the sysctl hw.acpi.os_name to
override the value for _OS.

Tested on: i386, ia64
Move the remaining bits of <sys/diskslice.h> to <i386/include/bootinfo.h>
Move i386/pc98 specific bits from <sys/reboot.h> to
<i386/include/bootinfo.h> as well.
Adjust includes in sys/boot accordingly.
o Revision 1.38 introduced the -n flag. It conflicted with the
RB_BOOTINFO flag, so was in effect always on. Change the -n flag to
be bit 0x1c instead of 0x1f. This also had the consequence that a mal-formed
/boot.config would render the system unbootable because the user was
unable to enter anything at all on the command line.
o Remove the initialization of opt to be RB_BOOTINFO since we filter that bit
out and do not otherwise use it.

It is not complete (the LILO root= specification isn't passed to our
loader for instance), it has not been touched in over 2 years. Linux has
moved on to GRUB, so this is OBE now. If someone creeps up to work on it,
it could become a port.

subset of Peter's patchs that are believed to be safe.
Makefile tweaks:
o -fomit-frame-pointer
o Change default to building both UFS1 and UFS2 bootblocks.
Lots of boot2 tweaks:
o lookup is only ever called with kname, so use it directly.
o inline memsize
o getstr are only ever called with cmd, so hardware that.
o tweaks to the parsing code to test after the conversion rather than
before since we tested after anyways.
o eliminate support for %x in printf.
o eliminate a few bytes in printfs.
o Tweak the boot banner.
o eliminate support for wd and " " devices (I might add wd back to
keep bde happy).
o eliminate support for a few arguments.
This takes us from -162 bytes free to 67 bytes free.
I've tested this only on a few systems, so be careful when updating to
this change.

Remove assorted now unneeded hackery.
UFS1_AND_UFS2 still needs another 150 bytes to work, and that is probably
not within our reach, ever.
