there is an environment variable which shall initialize the SYSCTL
during early boot. This works for all SYSCTL types both statically and
dynamically created ones, except for the SYSCTL NODE type and SYSCTLs
which belong to VNETs. A new flag, CTLFLAG_NOFETCH, has been added to
be used in the case a tunable sysctl has a custom initialisation
function allowing the sysctl to still be marked as a tunable. The
kernel SYSCTL API is mostly the same, with a few exceptions for some
special operations like iterating childrens of a static/extern SYSCTL
node. This operation should probably be made into a factored out
common macro, hence some device drivers use this. The reason for
changing the SYSCTL API was the need for a SYSCTL parent OID pointer
and not only the SYSCTL parent OID list pointer in order to quickly
generate the sysctl path. The motivation behind this patch is to avoid
parameter loading cludges inside the OFED driver subsystem. Instead of
adding special code to the OFED driver subsystem to post-load tunables
into dynamically created sysctls, we generalize this in the kernel.
Other changes:
- Corrected a possibly incorrect sysctl name from "hw.cbb.intr_mask"
to "hw.pcic.intr_mask".
- Removed redundant TUNABLE statements throughout the kernel.
- Some minor code rewrites in connection to removing not needed
TUNABLE statements.
- Added a missing SYSCTL_DECL().
- Wrapped two very long lines.
- Avoid malloc()/free() inside sysctl string handling, in case it is
called to initialize a sysctl from a tunable, hence malloc()/free() is
not ready when sysctls from the sysctl dataset are registered.
- Bumped FreeBSD version to indicate SYSCTL API change.

Fix multiple kernel panics when VIMAGE is enabled in the kernel.
These fixes are based on patches submitted by Adrian Chadd and Marko Zec.
(1) Set curthread->td_vnet to vnet0 in device_probe_and_attach() just before calling
device_attach(). This fixes multiple VIMAGE related kernel panics
when trying to attach Bluetooth or USB Ethernet devices because
curthread->td_vnet is NULL.
(2) Set curthread->td_vnet in if_detach(). This fixes kernel panics when detaching networking
interfaces, especially USB Ethernet devices.
(3) Use VNET_DOMAIN_SET() in ng_btsocket.c
(4) In ng_unref_node() set curthread->td_vnet. This fixes kernel panics
when detaching Netgraph nodes.
bug where a PCI device would be powered down if it failed to probe, but
not when its driver was detached (e.g. via kldunload).
- Add a new helper method resource_list_release_active() which forcefully
releases any active resources of a specified type from a resource list.
- Add a bus_child_detached method for the PCI bus driver which forces any
active resources to be released (and whines to the console if it finds
any) and then powers the device down.
- Call pci_child_detached() if we fail to probe a device when a driver
is kldloaded. This isn't perfect but can avoid leaking resources
from a probe() routine in the kldload case.

Descriptions are specific to drivers and we don't change drivers on attached
