caller to vm_page_grab(). Although this gives VM_ALLOC_ZERO a
different meaning for vm_page_grab() than for vm_page_alloc(), I feel
such change is necessary to accomplish other goals. Specifically, I
want to make the PG_ZERO flag immutable between the time it is
allocated by vm_page_alloc() and freed by vm_page_free() or
vm_page_free_zero() to avoid locking overheads. Once we gave up on
the ability to automatically recognize a zeroed page upon entry to
vm_page_free(), the ability to mutate the PG_ZERO flag became useless.
Instead, I would like to say that "Once a page becomes valid, its
PG_ZERO flag must be ignored."

Also, reduce unnecesary overhead in ACPI-fast by remove the barrier for
reads. The timer in the ACPI-fast case is known to increase monotonically
so there is no need to serialize access to it.

resource pre-allocation. The problem is that the BARs of the EBus bridges
contain the ranges for the resources for the EBus devices beyond the bridge.
So when the EBus code tries to allocate the resource for an EBus device
it's already allocated by the PCI code.
To be removed again as soon as we have a proper solution in the EBus Code.

secondary bus is 0, we program the primary bus, the secondary bus and
the suborindate bus. This isn't ideal, since we start at parent_bus +
1 and store this in a static.
Ideally, we'd walk the tree and assign bus numbers. However, that's
harder to accomplish without some help from the bus layer which we're
not planning on doing that until 6.

My original instinct to make ndis_return_packet() asynchronous was correct.
Making ndis_rxeof() submit packets to the stack asynchronously fixes
one recursive spinlock acquisition, but it's also possible for it to
happen via the ndis_txeof() path too. So:
- In if_ndis.c, revert ndis_rxeof() to its old behavior (and don't bother
putting ndis_rxeof_serial() back since we don't need it anymore).
- In kern_ndis.c, make ndis_return_packet() submit the call to the
MiniportReturnPacket() function to the "ndis swi" thread so that
it always happens in another context no matter who calls it.
workaround was for hardware where the clock was not latched, not for
hardware that was too slow. Also, make variable names more specific for ddb
printing.
While I would have prefered to have a solution that didn't move
knowledge of this into the pci layer. However, this is literally the
only exception that's listed in the PCI standard to the usual way of
decoding BARs. atapci devices in legacy mode now ignore the first 4
bars and hard code the values to the legacy ide values (well, for each
of the controllers that are in legacy mode). The 5th bar is handled
normally.
Remove the zero bar handling. zero bars should be ignored at all
other times, and since we handle that specially, we don't need the
older workaround.

wireless ever since I added the new spinlock code. Previously, I added
a special ndis_rxeof_serial() function to insure that when we receive
a packet, we never end up calling the MiniportReturnPacket() routine
until after the receive handler has finished. I set things up so that
ndis_rxeof_serial() would only be used for serialized miniports since
they depend on this property. Well, it turns out deserialized miniports
depend on a similar property: you can't let MiniportReturnPacket() be
called from the same context as the receive handler at all. The 2100B
driver happens to use a single spinlock for all of its synchronization,
and it tries to acquire it both while in MiniportHandleInterrupt() and
in MiniportReturnPacket(), so if we call MiniportReturnPacket() from
the MiniportHandleInterrupt() context, we will end up trying to acquire
the spinlock recursively, which you can't do.
To fix this, I made the ndis_rxeof_serial() handler the default. An
alternate solution would be to make ndis_return_packet() submit
the call to MiniportReturnPacket() to the NDIS task queue thread.
I may do that in the future, after I've tested things a bit more.

To fix this:
* Use a 32 bit timecounter mask when the timer is 32 bits.
* In test_counter(), use the acpi_TimerDelta function which handles 24/32
bit timers and wraparound.
Miscellaneous fixes:
* Use C99 initializers for timecounter struct.
* Use u_int and uint32_t where appropriate instead of unsigned.
* Remove whitespace-only lines
* Remove the old PIIX4 PCI workaround. The timecounter testing code has
been in use for long enough to prove it's functional.

Removed the requirement for a particular subvendor/subproduct in
rev.1.26 (VScom PCI-800L card). While the BARs, etc., may depend on
the sub-ids, this is not known to be so, and I think it is better to
guess that they don't. The decision to check sub-id checks in this
file is apparently random; for VScom cards they were checked in 3 of
8 cases.
