o don't strip the Ethernet header from inbound packets; pass packets
up the stack intact (required significant changes to some drivers)
o reference common definitions in net/ethernet.h (e.g. ETHER_ALIGN)
o track ether_ifattach/ether_ifdetach API changes
o track bpf changes (use BPF_TAP and BPF_MTAP)
o track vlan changes (ifnet capabilities, revised processing scheme, etc.)
o use if_input to pass packets "up"
o call ether_ioctl for default handling of ioctls

and the AT24C08 small serial flash parts. We still report these as
the same part (since we group things already), but now we recognize
the small serial versions as well.
firmware revision as well (not sure which firmware versions are needed
for this, but the 6.x and 8.x 'software' versions that I have seem to
support it).
Add dBm comm quality RID. This is like the normal comm quality rid,
except the signal and noise numbers are normalized to dBm. Some
revisions of the prism firmware, however, don't support this RID, and
some that do support it return 0 for quality and/or noise. Your
milage may vary.
cards. Since the firmware is hard coded into the kernel, I've made it
a kernel option (WI_SYMBOL_FIRMWARE).
Note: This only downloads into the RAM of these cards. It doesn't
download into FLASH, and is somewhat limited. There needs to be a
better way to deal, but this works for now. My Symbol LA4132 CF card
works now.

b) the inability to associate certain types of cards (most notibly

the former blocks software interrupts, while the latter blocks
hardware interrupts.
Avoid one place where I'm at splnet across a call to copyout. Leave
one in place to give bde something to complain about :-). Actaully,
I'll fix it in a subsequent commit.

buffer was not large enough by a factor of 4 (due to my changing the
size from 128 to 32, but not u_int8_t to u_int32_t).
