* Introduce TX DMA setup/teardown methods, mirroring what's done in
the RX path.
Although the TX DMA descriptor is setup via ath_desc_alloc() /
ath_desc_free(), there TX status descriptor ring will be allocated
in this path.
* Remove some of the TX EDMA capability probing from the RX path and
push it into the new TX EDMA path.
sized TX descriptor.
This is required for the AR93xx EDMA support which requires 128 byte
TX descriptors (which is significantly larger than the earlier
hardware.)
compatibility definitions are only needed for implementation of the
syscalls, they cause namespace pollution and are not useful for
applications.

ESP and AH, which does not make a lot of sense, IPcomp could be a possible
problematic candidate.

stopped threads. Implementation assumes that the thread's FPU context
is spilled into the PCB due to stop. This is mostly true, except when
FPU state for the thread is not initialized. Then the requests operate
on the garbage state which is currently left in the PCB, causing
confusion.
The situation is indeed observed after a signal delivery and before
#NM fault on execution of any FPU instruction in the signal handler,
since sendsig(9) drops FPU state for current thread, clearing
PCB_FPUINITDONE. When inspecting context state for the signal handler,
debugger sees the FPU state of the main program context instead of the
clear state supposed to be provided to handler.
Fix this by forcing clean FPU state in PCB user FPU save area by
performing getfpuregs(9) before accessing user FPU save area in
ptrace_machdep.c.
Note: this change will be merged to i386 kernel as well, where it is
much more important, since e.g. gdb on i386 uses PT_I386_GETXMMREGS to
inspect FPU context on CPUs that support SSE. Amd64 version of gdb
uses PT_GETFPREGS to inspect both 64 and 32 bit processes, which does
not exhibit the bug.

understands FPU hardware enough to catch SIGFPE and unmask exceptions
in control word, then it may as well properly handle return from
SIGFPE without causing an infinite loop of #MF exceptions due to
faulting instruction restart, when needed.
Clearing exceptions causes information loss for handlers which do
understand FPU hardware, and struct siginfo si_code member cannot be
considered adequate replacement for en_sw content due to translation.
Supposed reason for clearing the exceptions, which is IRQ13 handling
oddities, were never applicable to amd64.
Note: this change will be merged to i386 kernel as well, since we do
not support IRQ13 delivery of #MF notifications for some time.

Append '__' prefix to the tag of struct oflock, and put it under BSD
namespace. Structure is needed both by libc and kernel, thus cannot be
hidden under #ifdef _KERNEL.
Move a set of non-standard F_* and O_* constants into BSD namespace.
SUSv4 explicitely allows implemenation to pollute F_* and O_* names
after fcntl.h is included, but it costs us nothing to adhere
to the specification if exact POSIX compliance level is requested by
user code.
Change some spaces after #define to tabs.

For now, the only module implement is 'sample', and that's only partially
implemented. The main issue here with reusing this structure in userland
is that it uses 'rix' everywhere, which requires the userland code to
have access to the current HAL rate table.
For now, this is a very large work in progress.
Specific details:
* The rate control information is per-node at the moment and wrapped
in a TLV, to ease parsing and backwards compatibility.
* .. but so I can be slack for now, the userland statistics are just
a copy of the kernel-land sample node state.
* However, for now use a temporary copy and change the rix entries
to dot11rate entries to make it slightly easier to eyeball.
Problems:
* The actual rate information table is unfortunately indexed by rix
and it doesn't contain a rate code. So the userland side of this
currently has no way to extract out a mapping.
TODO:
* Add a TLV payload to dump out the rate control table mapping so
'rix' can be turned into a dot11 / MCS rate.
* .. then remove the temporary copy.
