We were obtaining different spin mutexes (which disable interrupts after
aquisition) and spin waiting for delivery. For example, KSE processes
do LDT operations which use smp_rendezvous, while other parts of the
system are doing things like tlb shootdowns with a different mutex.
This patch uses the common smp_rendezvous mutex for all MD home-grown
IPIs that spinwait for delivery. Having the single mutex means that
the spinloop to aquire it will enable interrupts periodically, thus
avoiding the cross-ipi deadlock.

hold its own values, pass them up to the parent (acpi0) and merge/uniq them
on the way. After the namespace evaluation, acpi will reserve these
resources and manage them via rman before bus_generic_probe() and
bus_generic_attach(). This is necessary because some systems specify
conflicting resources in separate sysresource objects. It's also cleaner
in that the interface between sysresource and acpi is now merely the parent's
resource list. This code handles the following cases:
1. Unique resource: add it to the parent via bus_set_resource().
2. New wholly contained in old: discard new.
3. New tail overlaps old head: grow old head downward.
AND/OR
4. New head overlaps old tail: grow old tail upward.

Size does matter for the alpha loader. The firmware gives it 256k
of address space which we overflowed many years ago. I extended it
in sys/boot/alpha/common/main.c:extend_heap() by adding 512k to the
loader's mapped address space.

The prefix management code currently resides in nd6, leaving only the
unused router renumbering capability in the in6_prefix files. Removing
it will make it easier for us to provide locking for the remainder of
IPv6 by reducing the number of objects requiring synchronized access.
This functionality has also been removed from NetBSD and OpenBSD.

deal with 24-bit addresses. While the two other attachments, namely
isa and cbus, do it properly, the PCI attachment was passing
BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR instead of BUS_SPACE_MAXADDR_24BIT. This bug
became apparent with the new contigmalloc() code.
This fixes the problem reported with lnc(4) interfaces inside VMWare,
and should theoritically also fix any user of a PCI lnc(4) card. It
is a RELENG_5 MFC candidate.

allocation. Notably, in this case, the driver tries to allocate several
pieces of memory and then fails if the pieces allocated after the first
do not come after it physically, and within a specific range (8MB I
believe). Of course, this could just as easily fail for any number of
reasons, but it almost always fails now that contiguous allocations start
at the end of possible specified memory locations rather than the beginning.
Allocate all the possibly-needed memory up front, even though it's a waste,
to get around this. The least bogus solution would be to take the physical
address from the first allocation and create a new tag that specified that
further allocations must follow it within that 8MB window, then use that
when allocating new channels, but that's left for anyone else that really
feels like doing it.
