- Add a comment describing why we hardwire 10baseT support in
the BMSR.
- Always explicitly set IFM_HDX for half-duplex. [1]

FE+ controller. Due to the severe silicon bugs for Yukon FE+,
88E3016 seems to require more workarounds. However I'm not sure
whether the workaround is PHY specific or only applicable to Yukon
FE+. The datasheet for the PHY is publicly available but it lacks
several details for the workaround used in this change. The
workaround information was obtained from Linux. Many thanks to
Yukon FE+ users who helped me add 88E3016 support.

sn(4) driver and also looking at newer drivers. The reason for the rewrite is
to support MII and to try and resolve some performance issues found when trying
to use the sn(4) driver on the Gumstix network boards.
For reference, the SMSC LAN91C111 is a non-PCI ethernet part whose lineage
dates back to Ye Olde Days of ISA. It seems to get some use in the embedded
space these days on parts lacking on-board MACs or on-board PCI controllers,
such as the XScale PXA line of ARM CPUs.
This also includes a driver for the SMSC LAN83C183 10/100 PHY.
Man page to follow.
10/100 operation and place the mailbox registers at a different offset.
They also do not have an EEPROM, so the MAC address must be read from
NVRAM instead.

DP83847 PHYs. The main reason for using a specific driver for these
PHYs are reset quirks similar to the nsphy(4) driven DP83840A.

- Moved BCM5706S/5708S SerDes support to brgphy (since they are not technically
TBI interfaces)
- Added 2.5G support for BCM5708S
Comments:
Since this driver is shared with bge I tested several available controllers
supported by bge and all worked as expected, however the list was not
exhaustive. Need wider testing.

addition of SerDes support. According to the docs, the 5706C and 5708C
phys are supposed to use the same MII model that is separate from the
SerDes parts, but the 5706C actually uses the MII model of the SerDes
parts. To fix this, readd the old 5706C entry to miidevs and add a
special check in brgphy_probe() for phys that match the 5706C ID. If
the phy is supported by the gentbi(4) driver, then it's a SerDes phy, so
we fail the probe and let gentbi(4) grab it. Otherwise, it's a 5706C phy,
so we let brgphy(4) grab it.

- Move some PHY bug detections from brgphy.c to if_bge.c.
- Do not penalize working PHYs.
- Re-arrange bge_flags roughly by their categories.
- Fix minor style(9) nits.

I have from Broadcom does not give much information on these devices,
so the Broadcom Linux driver was used for clues to what these chips
support. It turns out they are similar to the 5705 with the 5751
being the PCI-Express version and needing special work-arounds and
settings.
VT6122 gigabit ethernet chip and integrated 10/100/1000 copper PHY.
The vge driver has been added to GENERIC for i386, pc98 and amd64,
but not to sparc or ia64 since I don't have the ability to test
it there. The vge(4) driver supports VLANs, checksum offload and
jumbo frames.
Also added the lge(4) and nge(4) drivers to GENERIC for i386 and
pc98 since I was in the neighborhood. There's no reason to leave them
out anymore.
Tested at 100Mbit only, using Asus P4P800 onboard 3C940.
The -stable version of this patch I have in use for ~2 weeks now, and works
just fine for me.

ethernet chips. This driver is pretty simple, however it contains
special DSP initialization code which is needed in order to get
the chip to negotiate a gigE link. (This special initialization
may not be needed in subsequent chip revs.) Also:
- Fix typo in if_rlreg.h (RL_GMEDIASTAT_1000MPS -> RL_GMEDIASTAT_1000MBPS)
- Deal with shared interrupts in re_intr(): if interface isn't up,
return.
- Fix another bug in re_gmii_writereg() (properly apply data field mask)
- Allow PHY driver to read the RL_GMEDIASTAT register via the
re_gmii_readreg() register (this is register needed to determine
real time link/media status).
