Shift to using the same queueing strategy that the amr driver uses.
Some simple tests indicate that we use about 2% of the CPU at around
500tps with the controller completely saturated with I/O.
the time spent at splbio(). We now avoid it unless we are actually
manipulating the command queues themselves. This doesn't improve
performance noticeably, but should improve concurrency somewhat.
(yet) compile and link. Renamed pcic back to pcic from pcicx, but
conditionalize its inclusion on pccard being included also. card is
the old and pccard is the new, which is a handy way to have both in
the tree at the same time.

like "pw usermod <name> -m" to work for non-local NIS users; since no attempt
is made to update the password entry, the home directory will be created and
populated as expected without error.
incomplete and likely has problem. The code was originally pcmcia,
but I renamed it to pccard and made it compile on FreeBSD -current. I
converted SIMPLEQ to STAILQ as well as a few sc->dev.xname ->
device_printf changes. This is a green port of fairly mature code.
I derived this work from the FreeBSD newconfig project
(http://www.jp.freebsd.org/newconfig). Any problems with it are
likely introduced by me.

instead of a boolean. This replicated through he front-end sub-functions
relating to add, delete, modify entries in passwd & group files
Errno is now preserved so output of errc()/warnc() will be less obfuscated
by subsequent errors when reporting the problem.
Add more intelligent error handling when attempting to modify/delete NIS
entries with no corresponding local database entry.
[MFC to stable in a couple of weeks to keep both in sync]
wide-format option to get client-side ops and cache statistics on a single
line.
Change client side ops to the number of attempted ops, whether cached or
not, rather then just the number of rpc's that went through to the server.
This brings nfsstat inline with systat -vm and vmstat and reduces
confusion. The combined cache percentage stats now available via
'nfsstat -cW 1' becomes very useful.
if_fe.c uses PCCARD_MODULE() and is part of GENERIC. I've #ifdef'ed out
the #include of "card.h" to hopefully disable pccard support in this
driver until it can be converted. I'm not positive this will fix make
release, but it can't possibly make it any worse than it is now.
I hope this stuff settles down soon.
