two upcoming features:
semi-transparent mode:
when a device is opened in this mode, the
user program will be able to mark slots that must be forwarded
to the "other" side (i.e. from NIC to host stack, or viceversa),
and the forwarding will occur automatically at the next netmap syscall.
This saves the need to open another file descriptor and do
the forwarding manually.
direct-forwarding mode:
when operating with a VALE port, the user can specify in the slot
the actual destination port, overriding the forwarding decision
made by a lookup of the destination MAC. This can be useful to
implement packet dispatchers.
No API changes will be introduced.
No new functionality in this patch yet.
CPUs exhibit bad behavior if this is done (Intel Errata AAJ3, hangs on
Pentium-M, and trashing of the local APIC registers on a VIA C7). The
local APIC is implicitly mapped UC already via MTRRs, so the clflush isn't
necessary anyway.

tunable_mbinit() where it is next to where it is used later.
Change the sysinit level of tunable_mbinit() from SI_SUB_TUNABLES
to SI_SUB_KMEM after the VM is running. This allows to use better
methods to determine the effectively available physical and virtual
memory available to the kernel.
Update comments.
In a second step it can be merged into mbuf_init().
a process has an auditid/preselection masks specified, and
is jailed, include the zonename (jailname) token as a

refactor the link section of distrib-dirs to alwasy install to a full
path (the link contents remain relative as they should).
Eliminate the use of the "rm -r[f] <foo>; ln -s <bar> <foo>" pattern in
favor of "ln -sf <bar> <foo>". None of these links could be directories
on a system installed in the last decade.

chip hangs.
* Always do a reset in ath_bmiss_proc(), regardless of whether the
hardware is "hung" or not. Specifically, for spectral scan, there's
likely a whole bunch of potential hangs that we don't (yet) recognise
in the HAL. So to avoid staying RX deaf persisting until the station
disassociates, just do a no-loss reset.
* Set sc_beacons=1 in STA mode. During a reset, the beacon programming
isn't done. (It's likely I need to set sc_syncbeacons during a hang
reset, but I digress.) Thus after a reset, there's no beacon timer
programming to send a BMISS interrupt if beacons aren't heard ..
thus if the AP disappears, you won't get notified and you'll have to
reset your interface.
This hasn't yet fixed all of the hangs that I've seen when debugging
spectral scan, but it's certainly reduced the hang frequency and it
should improve general STA stability in very noisy environments.
Tested:
* AR9280, STA mode, spectral scan off/on

when an interface is going down.
Right now it's quite possible (but very unlikely!) that ath_reset()
or similar is called, leading to a beacon config call, in parallel with
the last VAP being destroyed.
This likely should be fixed by making sure the bmiss/bstuck/watchdog
taskqueues are canceled whenever the last VAP is destroyed.
ARM EABI support is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting
WITH_ARM_EABI when building, however only the kernel-toolchain target will
work with this flag until the rest of the support is added.
