A later change, currently being iterated on in D24459, will in-fact change
the lock type to an sx so that TTY drivers can sleep on it if they need to.
Committing this ahead of time to make the review in question a little more
palatable.
tty_lock_assert() is unfortunately still needed for now in two places to
make sure that the tty lock has not been recursed upon, for those scenarios
where it's supplied by the TTY driver and possibly a mutex that is allowed
to recurse.

OF_getprop_alloc takes element size argument and returns number of
elements in the property. There are valid use cases for such behavior
but mostly API consumers pass 1 as element size to get string
properties. What API users would expect from OF_getprop_alloc is to be
a combination of malloc + OF_getprop with the same semantic of return
value. This patch modifies API signature to match these expectations.
For the valid use cases with element size != 1 and to reduce
modification scope new OF_getprop_alloc_multi function has been
introduced that behaves the same way OF_getprop_alloc behaved prior to
this patch.

Implement a new "geomio" configuration argument to altera_avgen(4),
the generic I/O device we attach to various BERI peripherals. The new
option requests that, instead of exposing the underlying device via a
special device node in /dev, it instead be exposed via geom(4),
allowing it to be used with filesystems. The current implementation
does not allow a device to be exposed both for file/mmap and geom, so
one of the two models must be selected when configuring it via FDT or
device.hints. A typical use of the new option will be:

out low-level console output at a speed greater than the JTAG UART is
willing to carry data. Or it may not.

Minor improvements to the Altera JTAG UART device driver:
- Minor rework to the logic to detect JTAG presence in order to be a bit
more resilient to inevitable races: increase the retry period from two
seconds to four seconds for trying to find JTAG, and more agressively
clear the miss counter if JTAG has been reconnected. Once JTAG has
vanished, stop prodding the miss counter.
- Do a bit of reworking of the output code to frob the control register
less by checking whether write interrupts are enabled/disabled before
changing their state. This should reduce the opportunity for races
with JTAG discovery (which are inherent to the Altera
hardware-software interface, but can at least be minimised).
- Add statistics relating to interrupt enable/disable/JTAG
discovery/etc.
With these changes, polled-mode JTAG UART ttys appear substantially
more robust.

Add a comment about a device-driver race condition that could cause the BERI
pipeline to wedge awaiting JTAG in the event that both the low-level console
and the tty layer decide to write to the JTAG FIFO just before JTAG is
disconnected. Resolving this race is a bit tricky as it looks like there
isn't a way to 'give the character back' to the tty layer when we discover
the race. The easy fix is to drop the character, which we don't yet do, but
perhaps should as that is a better outcome than wedging the pipeline.

commit 8bd88585ed8e3f7def0d780a1bc30d96fe642b9c
Rework atse_rx_cycles handling: count packets instead of fills, and use the
limit only when polling, not when in interrupt mode. Otherwise, we may
stop reading the FIFO midpacket and clear the event mask even though the
FIFO still has data to read, which could stall receive when a large packet
arrives. Add a comment about races in the Altera FIFO interface: we may
need to do a little more work to handle races than we are.

Experimentation suggests that the Altera Triple-Speed Ethernet documentation
is incorrect and bits in the event and interrupt-enable registers are not
irrationally rearranged relative to the status register.
commit 3cff2ffad769289fce3a728152e7be09405385d8
Substantially rework interrupt handling in the atse(4) driver:
- Introduce a new macro ATSE_TX_PENDING() which checks whether there is
any pending data to transmit, either in an in-progress packet or in
the TX queue.
- Introduce new ATSE_RX_STATUS_READ() and ATSE_TX_STAUTS_WRITE() macros
that query the FIFO status registers rather than event registers,
offering level- rather than edge-triggered FIFO conditions.
- For RX, interrupt only on full/overflow/underflow; for TX, interrupt
only on empty/overflow/underflow.
- Add new ATSE_RX_INTR_READ() and ATSE_RX_INTR_WRITE() macros useful for
debugging interrupt behaviour.
- Add a debug.atse_intr_debug_enable sysctl that causes various pieces
of FIFO state to be printed out on each RX or TX interrupt. This is
disabled by default but good to turn on if the interface appears to
wedge. Also print debugging information when polling.
- In the watchdog handler, do receive, not just transmit, processing, to
ensure that the rx, not just tx, queue is being handled -- and, in
particular, will be drained such that interrupts can resume.
- Rework both atse_rx_intr() and atse_tx_intr() to eliminate many race
conditions, and add comments on why various things are in various
orders. Interactions between modifications to the event and interrupt
masks are quite subtle indeed, and we must actively check for a number
of races (e.g., event mask cleared; packet arrives; interrupts enabled).
We also now use the status registers rather than event registers for
FIFO status checks to avoid other races; we continue to use event
registers for underflow/overflow.
With this change, interrupt-driven operation of atse appears (for the
time being) robust.
