Many thanks to Broadcom for continuing support of FreeBSD.

AR8132 FastEthernet controller. The PHY has no ability to
establish a gigabit link. Previously only link parters which
support down-shifting was able to establish link.
This change should fix a long standing link establishment issue of
AR8132.

systems. In principle, FreeBSD should run on at least some of these
already, and support for the remainder will hopefully show up eventually,
so add this while I'm thinking about it.
Casting a pointer to a wide integer is probably not that bad, but I am
still guilty of not testing this.

file and processes information retrieval from the running kernel via sysctl
in the form of new library, libprocstat. The library also supports KVM backend
for analyzing memory crash dumps. Both procstat(1) and fstat(1) utilities have
been modified to take advantage of the library (as the bonus point the fstat(1)
utility no longer need superuser privileges to operate), and the procstat(1)
utility is now able to display information from memory dumps as well.
The newly introduced fuser(1) utility also uses this library and able to operate
via sysctl and kvm backends.
The library is by no means complete (e.g. KVM backend is missing vnode name
resolution routines, and there're no manpages for the library itself) so I
plan to improve it further. I'm commiting it so it will get wider exposure
and review.
We won't be able to MFC this work as it relies on changes in HEAD, which
was introduced some time ago, that break kernel ABI. OTOH we may be able
to merge the library with KVM backend if we really need it there.

This brings our implementation in line with OSS specification for
systems that support mmap. The change should also improve compatibility
with OSS software not specifically written for FreeBSD, e.g. PulseAudio
OSS plugin.

configuration files.
If the current file differs from the canonical version from the old release
only due to differences in the $FreeBSD$ tag (which can happen if the system
was installed from source code, depending on how the src tree was checked out)
then freebsd-update will treat the file as "unmodified" and silently update
it to the "clean" version in the new release.
If the only change being made to a configuration file is in the $FreeBSD$
tag (e.g., for any configuration files which have been modified locally, now
that we're using SVN and the $FreeBSD$ tag changes when a branch is created),
freebsd-update will no longer print the diff and prompt "Does this look
reasonable (y/n)?".

environments.
In setups where NF calibration can take a while, don't load the CCA
and kick off a new NF calibration if the previous one hasn't yet
completed. This shouldn't happen unless the environment is noisy but
those exist (hi phk!).
Here, if the previous NF hasn't completed when ar5416LoadNf() is run
(which reads the NF), it skips updating the history buffer, loading
the NF CCA array and kicking off the next NF cal. It's hoped it'll
occur in the next long calibration interval.

This is taking quite a while for some people in some situations
(eg AR5418 in phk's Abusive Radio Environment).
Instead, the rest of the calibration related code should
ensure that a NF calibration has occured before reading NF
values and kicking off another NF calibration.
The channel should also likely be marked as "noisy" (CWINT)
if the NF calibration takes too long.
