New design allows to attach multiple consumers to ntb_transport(4) instance.
Previous design obtained from Linux theoretically allowed that, but was not
practically usable (Linux also has only one consumer driver now).
For compatibility reasons make driver not report any checksum offload by
default, since there is indeed none. But if administrator knows that
interface is used only for local traffic, he can enable fake checksum
offload manually on both sides to save some CPU cycles, since the data
are already protected by CRC32 of PCIe link.

This follows NTB subsystem modularization in Linux, tuning it to FreeBSD
native NewBus interfaces. This change allows to support different types
of hardware with different drivers, support multiple NTB instances in a
system, ntb_transport module use for needs other then if_ntb, etc.

Note that the MW allocation still must be BAR *aligned*. So, this only
loosens the constraints on MW allocation slightly. BAR-aligned does not
play well with large (GB+) BAR sizes.
Going forward, if anyone cares about if_ntb on very large BARs, I
suggest they add functionality to allocate a smaller window than the BAR
size, and set the BAR range to cover a window much larger than the
allocated window. This will require negotiating a window offset and
limit for protocol traffic. None of this is implemented in this
revision.

This feature is disabled by default. To enable it, tune
hw.if_ntb.enable_xeon_watchdog to non-zero.
If enabled, writes an unused NTB register every second to demonstrate to
a hardware watchdog that the NTB device is still alive. Most machines
with NTB will not need this -- you know who you are.

Discard the unused rx_free_q. Instead, reuse inputed packets by putting
them back on the *pend* queue after reinitialization.
If tx or rx handlers are unavailable, free mbufs rather than leaking
them.
With this change, if_ntb can receive more than 100
(NTB_QP_DEF_NUM_ENTRIES) packets.

Because it can sleep drainking link work callout(s). Linux (dual
BSD/GPL driver) does something very similar.
At the same time, switch the NTB CTX lock to a non-spin mutex, because
the taskqueue_swi lock can't be taken after a spin mutex.

A plain 32 bit integer will overflow for values over 4GiB.
Change the plain integer size to the appropriate size type in
ntb_set_mw. Change the type of the size parameter and two local
variables used for size.
Even if there is no overflow, a size of zero is invalid here.

It was possible for a synchronous update of the RX index in the error
case to get ahead of the asynchronous RX index update in the normal
case. Change the RX processing to preserve an RX completion order.
There were two error cases. First, if a buffer is not present to
receive data, there would be no queue entry to preserve the RX
completion order. Instead of dropping the RX frame, leave the RX frame
in the ring. Schedule RX processing when RX entries are enqueued, in
case there are RX frames waiting in the ring to be received.
Second, if a buffer is too small to receive data, drop the frame in the
ring, mark the RX entry as done, and indicate the error in the RX entry
length. Check for a negative length in the receive callback in
ntb_netdev, and count occurrences as rx_length_errors.

Reset the link stats when the link goes down. In particular, the TX and

This is the last e26a5843 patch. The general thrust of the rewrite was
to move more responsibility for Memory Window and Doorbell interrupt
management from the ntb_hw driver to if_ntb.
A number of APIs have been added, removed, or replaced. The old
DB callback mechanism has been excised. Instead, callers (if_ntb) are
responsible for configuring MWs and handling their interrupts more
directly.
This adds a tunable, hw.ntb.max_mw_size, allowing users to limit the
size of memory windows used by if_ntb (identical to the Linux modparam
of the same name).
Despite attempts to keep mechanical name changes to separate commits,
some have snuck in here. At least the driver should be much more
similar to the latest Linux one now -- making porting fixes easier.

No functional change.
Still part of the huge e26a5843 rewrite. I'm trying to make it less of
a complete rewrite in the FreeBSD version of the driver. Still, it
helps if our names match Linux.

This is a follow-up to r289208: "Xeon Errata Workaround."
Add logic to support a variable number of memory windows and doorbell
callbacks. This was added to the Linux driver in the "Xeon Errata
Workaround" commit, but I skipped it because it didn't look neccessary
at the time. It is needed for future Haswell split-BAR support, so
bring it in now.
A new tunable was added for if_ntb, 'hw.ntb.max_num_clients'. By
default, it is set to zero -- infer the number of clients from the
number of memory windows available from the hardware. Any other
positive value can specify a different number of clients, limited by the
number of doorbell callbacks available (4 under MSI-X, or 15 (Xeon) or
34 (SoC) under legacy INTx).

Original Linux commit log:
The NTB translate register must have the value to be BAR size aligned.
This alignment check make sure that the DMA memory allocated has the
proper alignment. Another requirement for NTB to function properly with
memory window BAR size greater or equal to 4M is to use the CMA feature
in 3.16 kernel with the appropriate CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT and
CONFIG_CMA_SIZE_MBYTES set.

A WARN_ON is being hit in ntb_qp_link_work due to the NTB transport link
being down while the ntb qp link is still active. This is caused by the
transport link being brought down prior to the qp link worker thread
being terminated. To correct this, shutdown the qp's prior to bringing
the transport link down. Also, only call the qp worker thread if it is
in interrupt context, otherwise call the function directly.
