Make devfs cloning a sysctl/tunable which defaults to on.
If devfs cloning is enabled, only the super-user may create
tun(4)/tap(4)/vmnet(4) instances. Devfs cloning is still enabled by
default; it may be disabled from the loader or via sysctl with
"net.link.tap.devfs_cloning" and "net.link.tun.devfs_cloning".
Disabling its use affects potentially all tun(4)/tap(4) consumers
including OpenSSH, OpenVPN and VMware.

of a tap(4) instance, if IFF_PROMISC is not set.
In tap(4), we should emulate the effect IFF_PROMISC would have on
hardware, otherwise we risk introducing layer 2 loops if tap(4) is
used with bridges. This means not even bpf(4) gets to see them.
This patch has been tested in a variety of situations. Multicast and
broadcast frames are correctly allowed through. I have observed this
behaviour causing problems with multiple QEMU instances hosted on
the same FreeBSD machine.
The checks in in ether_demux() [if_ethersubr.c, rev 1.222, line 638]
are insufficient to prevent this bug from occurring, as ifp->if_vlantrunk
will always be NULL for the non-vlan case.

we never initialize it to anything else. However, in the case that
m_uiotombuf fails, we return error (effectively reporting success).
This appears to be a relic of an older revision of this file, where
"error" used to be doing something useful. (See revision 1.1, where
error is used in a loop with uiomove() instead of using m_uiotomubf).
So instead on unconditionally reporting success in the case there is
a failure in m_uiotombuf, explicitly return ENOBUFS. While we are
here, garbage collect the error variable since it's no longer required.

Implementors of the event can ignore it if they're not interested,

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 tap driver, even with Giant over the cdev operation vector, due to
a non-atomic test-and-set of the si_drv1 field in the dev_t. This bug
exists with Giant under high memory pressure, as malloc() may sleep
in tapcreate(), but is less likely to occur. The resolution will
probably be to cover si_drv1 using the global tapmtx since no softc is
available, but I need to think about this problem more generally
across a range of drivers using si_drv1 in combination with SI_CHEAPCLONE
to defer expensive allocation to open().
Correct what appears to be a bug in the original if_tap implementation,
in which tapopen() will panic if a tap device instance is opened more

Notes:
- The EBUSY check in MOD_UNLOAD may be subject to a race. Moving the
event handler unregister inside the mutex grab may prevent that race.
- Locking of global variables safely is now possible because tapclones
is only modified when the module is loading or unloading, thanks to
phk's recent chang to clone_setup().
- softc locking to follow.

This commit adds a couple of functions for pseudodrivers to use for
implementing cloning in a manner we will be able to lock down (shortly).
Basically what happens is that pseudo drivers get a way to ask for
"give me the dev_t with this unit number" or alternatively "give
me a dev_t with the lowest guaranteed free unit number" (there is
unfortunately a lot of non-POLA in the exact numeric value of this
number, just live with it for now)
Managing the unit number space this way removes the need to use
rman(9) to do so in the drivers this greatly simplifies the code in
the drivers because even using rman(9) they still needed to manage
their dev_t's anyway.
I have taken the if_tun, if_tap, snp and nmdm drivers through the
mill, partly because they (ab)used makedev(), but mostly because
together they represent three different problems for device-cloning:
if_tun and snp is the plain case: just give me a device.
if_tap has two kinds of devices, with a flag for device type.
nmdm has paired devices (ala pty) can you can clone either of them.
