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.

IF_ADDR_UNLOCK() across network device drivers when accessing the
per-interface multicast address list, if_multiaddrs. This will
allow us to change the locking strategy without affecting our driver
programming interface or binary interface.
For two wireless drivers, remove unnecessary locking, since they
don't actually access the multicast address list.

- Rework the watchdog timer to match other NIC drivers:
- Start a timer in fe_init() that runs once a second and checks a counter
in the softc that is identical to the deprecated 'if_timer'.
- Just adjust the softc tx timeout value when sending packets instead of
scheduling the timer.
- Use IFQ_SET_MAXLEN().

- Add a mutex to the softc to protect the softc and device hardware.
- Don't leak bus resources if if_alloc() fails during attach.
- Setup the interrupt handler after calling ether_ifattach().
- Use a private timer to manage the transmit watchdog.

through ifp anyway. IF_LLADDR() works faster, and all (except
one) ifaddr_byindex() users were converted to use ifp->if_addr.
- Stop storing a (pointer to) Ethernet address in "struct arpcom",
and drop the IFP2ENADDR() macro; all users have been converted
to use IF_LLADDR() instead.
IFF_DRV_RUNNING, as well as the move from ifnet.if_flags to
ifnet.if_drv_flags. Device drivers are now responsible for
synchronizing access to these flags, as they are in if_drv_flags. This
helps prevent races between the network stack and device driver in
maintaining the interface flags field.
Many __FreeBSD__ and __FreeBSD_version checks maintained and continued;

struct ifnet or the layer 2 common structure it was embedded in have
been replaced with a struct ifnet pointer to be filled by a call to the
new function, if_alloc(). The layer 2 common structure is also allocated
via if_alloc() based on the interface type. It is hung off the new
struct ifnet member, if_l2com.
This change removes the size of these structures from the kernel ABI and
will allow us to better manage them as interfaces come and go.
Other changes of note:
- Struct arpcom is no longer referenced in normal interface code.
Instead the Ethernet address is accessed via the IFP2ENADDR() macro.
To enforce this ac_enaddr has been renamed to _ac_enaddr.
- The second argument to ether_ifattach is now always the mac address
from driver private storage rather than sometimes being ac_enaddr.

The majority of modern drivers never does this and works fine, which
makes me think that the check is totally unnecessary and a residue
of cut&paste from other drivers.
This change is done to simplify locking because now almost none of the
drivers uses this field. The exceptions are "ct" "ctau" and "cx"
where i am not sure if i can remove that part.

and there actually isn't any reason each driver should have its own copy
of this function as they could all share one copy of it (if it grew an
additional argument).

This change paves the way for interface renaming and enhanced pseudo
